It comes with the equipment needed built in, besides a heater and thermmoteter. If I were to buy a 10 gallon and add all the stuff seperate like lights, filter, and so on I would proably go over $250. So I think this is really worth the money! I'm sure others on here have this tank and would just love to have your input on it. I see that it gets alot of good reviews and also alot of people reccomend it too!
Tell me what ya think.
Thanks!

they are nice tanks, and good for beginners

The biocubes are great tanks, especially for beginners. I love mine. The only issue is the stock lighting will not allow you to keep SPS or anemones that require high lighting. The lighting is cheap to upgrade if you ever get to that point.

Just dont spend more than $180 on the 14 gallon version. Can be had all over for under that price.

A few of the local "petsmarts" in my area all have the 14 gallon on clearance for $120

I wonder if my local petsmart has them on clearance. I hope so.... I might just stop on by there.

Give them a call. I know of 3 in my area that all have them for that price. I think they are phasing out of that size because the larger (29 gallon i think) is still at its normal price.

welcome to SWF...i would go 29, it is not that much more expensive, lets you keep much more stuff and is easier in the end to do maintenance for. also in this hobby the word PATIENCE is most important.
