Josh's biocube build

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

ok i bit the bullet its official im gettin a cube wiith the Sumner job. money mts has sunk its deep teeth into me. so my first cocern is finding one cheep will i need a stand for one? also where can i find a cheap one im aiming for a 29 or 18g cube

 

[carey]

It's still 249 at pet solutions for the 29g. I would recommend the stand as well, so add another 119. :-(

This will be a cool thread! When do you start working?

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

i have an orientation next Tuesday so may 31st i start working end june beginning of july. i saw some cheap ones on ebay but its tank only new in box but no stand

 

[carey]

I'd be really careful buying used though. Remember I got burned? You could also go for the 14g one too, i think its 169 and the stand is only like 99. I love the biocube stand, really sturdy and a TON of strorage area.

iknow so much cheaper but some people said after fill up it only holds 8g of water i really want this laptop thats 379.99 and this cube il prob make around 700-800 range wht do i do?

Thats up to you. The laptop would probably be a good investment though. You could use it for school too.

Don't let that thread about it holding less water throw you off. If it is off it's only by a marginal amount. You could also get a 29g regular tank setup. I used a tank, stand and ac filter, heater and I was set. You won't need a skimmer for a small tank if you dont have the money.

if i drop that much cash on it will shipping be free atleast

 

[carey]

yes, it was from where I got mine. i also got a $30 credit that I used on fish.

the laptop is a definiate the tank budget is working around it lol im sticking with the cube i love the shape of it i want the 29 for clowns n gobies or something cool

 

[carey]

I totally understand. I love my cube. Little hard to clean the edges though lol. never had a rounded edge tank before.

I started a new thread, go check out what I wanna get!

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

will do! could the 14 hold anything good livestock wise compared to my 10?

 

[carey]

It will be bigger so yeah, you could have more stocking options but not as many as in the 29g.

Doesn't idream have a 14g? Check and see what he thinks..see if he would prefer the 29g now that he knows how the 14g is

Carey on the site i see no stand options but the 29s 249.99 is that including stand? theres no option to buy it seperatly

 

[carey]

I bought mine separetly. it was much cheaper that way. I had my lfs order it for me and it was 119. for the 29g stand. I;ve seen the 14g stand everywhere though

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

look on the site is there an option i missed? it shows dimensions for both so im assuming that price is stand and tank? if it is its in my price range and the 14 would be well withiin my range

 

[carey]

If your on petsoltuons webpage they price is for tank only. stand is extra and I dont think they carry the 29g stand. :-(

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

dang laptop is 379.99 id only be able to afford the 14 and stand but where could i even find a stand?

 

[carey]

I'd ask at your fish store next time youre there. I didnt think it was gonna be cheaper but it was. I can also find you the stand cheap online if you like,.
