Was wondering what all I need to do to my biocube to have it reef ready.
If anyone has a link to a page about making a fuge out of the middle chamber that would be great!!! Does anyone recomend using filter floss or chemi pure? Also, what lights for the fuge??
Thanks:)

All you have to do to make a fuge out of the 2nd chamber is take out the bioballs, put some live rock and chaetomorpha in there, get a light and you are finished :)

I would recommend both Purigen and ChemiPure Elite.

Fuge lights can just be a few watts. A cheap petco one will be fine :)

Awesome thanks!
 
My biocube setup I knocked out all of the false floors and stripped out all of the sponges. Nitrate farms they are.

intake chamber - fuge , cut tab off for more flow on top.
middle - tunze 9002 skimmer with InTank cup and InTank media basket with purgien, poly floss, and carbon
last, return - RIO6F return pump.

Stripped the paint off the back in a section on first chamber and will be mounting a light. on the outside.

Cool! What light will you use?
 
Look for a NanoGlo LED. Magnet goes on the inside while the light on the outside sticks to inside magnet. Think it's rated 7500k which is plenty. I use it on my Bio 14 and the Chaeto couldn't be healthier
