Thank you or the kind words. I like it 100x's better!!

I'm actually excited for you! lol. Do you really like it? I think you nailed it!!

It's also gonna give the appearance of a larger tank! You have real estate for all kids of corals from low light to medium to high light.

You'll be able to place corals all over, I like the open space in the middle also. The fish will be very happy with the free swim room.

Good job!

You won't have much luck with a nem under the stock lighting of the bio cube. Some have tried and it ended up bad. I wouldn't attempt it. You'd have to go with T5's at least a 4 bulb fixture or LED's.

Mt water has a green tint to it

Green tint? Do you have any algae? Like on the rocks or glass? Did you add any chemicals?

 

[Masoniac]

No algae no chemicals just the sand ro water and live rock I have my stock lighting at the moment waiting to get a t5 HO fixture that may be the cause but it is a 50/50 bulb in the fixture

Eh... We all make mistakes, I'm not gonna preach to you, you know what you did and you the thing is you realize it so your good in my book

Try keeping the lights of and see if that helps. Also test for phosphates. You use RO/DI water or distilled?

I agree with con, tank looks 100x better now just keep in eye out for that perfect piece to "bridge" the two piles with a nice arch and it will be perfect imo!
