Biocube 29 HQI Saltwater Tank

This is my brand new Biocube HQI 29 gallon Saltwater Tank. Once this tank has matured for a bit I plan on having some coral, a few fish and crustaceans. I forgot to mention in the video that this tank also comes with a Protein Skimmer that I do have currently running but I believe that it is still breaking in.

@iGeekAquariums WTF r u talking about? R u commenting on a comment that is over a year old?

[jhall651]

@Badfly48 : Yes. What makes you ask?

[jhall651]

@manny : That's funny I never noticed I said that.

@ werunDP : You are a moron. That is not a Blue Tang. It is a Yellow Tailed Damsel and the tank was started with all live and pre cultured rock and sand equaling minimal cycle. Thanks for the input though.

I just got the same biocube you got and I was wondering if i could put my live sand and live rock in before it cycles. Right now the tank is empty and i am about to fill it with salt water. just wondering what you thought.. I dont wanna loose 50 pounds of live rock..

@Mapexdrumskyle : Dude you need to do a little research. Number 1 50lbs of live rock is to much for this size of tank. Number 2 when you "cycle" a tank you are not actually cycling the tank it self. You are cycling the rocks and sand and what ever else means of filtration you have. Number 3 if you already have the live rock and it has been out of saltwater for more than a few hours you are already losing the bacteria inside of it that makes it "live" and that is used for filtration.

I hate when people tell you to test your water by throwing fish in there and seeing if they die. I think its inappropriate. Test your water daily for ammonia, nitrates and nitrites. The numbers will tell you when your tank has cycled.

@jhall651 How much did you spend on the rock?

@jhall651 No need to lash out... but you are right,,, as long as the tank is "seeded" it is perfectly fine.

Just started my tank a few months ago. Loving it however just a little obsessed with it.. :) I have mine on a counter in the kitchen but like the look of yours on a stand. The black has an updated look...most look so 80's. Im considering moving mine but a little nervous about it. :) Thanks for sharing...
