In this video I show you how my BioCube 14 is setup and stocked. I do the best I can with the crappy camera I have and my iPhone but the video still comes out bad. Oh well, you get the idea of what I'm trying to show you here. This video does my tank no justice as it is a very beautiful and colorful tank.
Here what you are looking at:
Equipment: 14 Gallon BioCube, Biocube skimmer, stock return pump, and Biocube powerhead. I had to constantly move the powerhead to get it in the right spot for this tiny tank. It leave a deep dune in the sandbed in the back of the tank but I can deal with that.
Fish: two spot blenny, Yellow clown Goby, and a clownfish
Inverts: 5 Snails(3 types), 4 Hermit's, Emerald crab, Cleaner shrimp
Coral: Bird's nest, 2 types of Xenia, Blue Mushroom, Star polyp, Ricordia, Tongue Coral
Also have a Lima Clam
Please leave me some comments and let me know what you think about my tank.

@Capri0295 you don't "need" one for such a small tank.. I have the same tank and many corals as well and don't use a protein skimmer for it at all.. As long as you do your weekly water changes and don't overfeed(avoid foods high in phosphates) you should be ok..
