Hey everyone. Name is Mike, I'm from Duncan BC.I have just a couple of tanks as you can see in my profile info. I've kept freshwater tanks for years no problems on that end, main reason for joining here is due to my new purchace of a 29g Biocube.
I want to set-up a small reef style tank. I got the bio cube used and it has a piece cut out of the canopy (for a skimmer I was told). Will I need a skimmer right away or can I wait a month or 2? Wondering what else I should do to the cube before I even put water in (I've seen some mods out there but was wondering what would be recommended) Should I think about a Light Upgrade? It looks to have stock lighting with 36w 10k day and 36w 10k deep blue bulbs. What should I be putting in the chambers for the filtration (it only came with some bioballs)
Sorry about the long winded intro and many questions, just want to do my research before putting anything alive in a tank. Would also love suggestions on what to put in the tank for fish/corals/etc.
Thanks, looking forward to hearing your ideas.
