Biocube 14g tips, need advice

[Ga1981]

So, I have this 14 g biocube sitting for the last 2 months.
I try to sell it but nobody interested, I this point I'll to set the cube again...
I was thinking something low maintenance , SW obviously .
Any idea, use to be a nano reef before, I don't want to do that again.i was thinking to have just frags in it, no substrate, no LR and use egg crate.is that possible?

So you want to set up a frag tank?
If you can't keep a nano reef, I wouldn't do a nano frag tank either.

I took good care of my nano reef, I just moved all the stuff on a bigger tank....
Just not like the tank sitting empty.....

Nope, my coral was growing fast, I hated that the fish use to jump in the back chamber and is so small I can't even get hands in there,just want a clean nice look

I see..
I would set it up like a normal tank and no sand on the bottom. I'll post a picture of mine when I get home and help more then.

Ok so I'm thinking to use my aquamaxx hob skimmer, rated for 50-70g, a led light bulb par 38, 1 should be enought...which flow should I use for a return pump?add a power head maybe? I got spare 425 and 245 gph nano power head.... In chamber # 2 some LR pieces and cheato I'm thinking....
If I get LR and water and livestock from a different aquarium I be able to run the biocube without go true a cycle?
