You should it's totally worth it but try to find a used one I got mine 150$ there usually sold brand new for like 650$ but still worth it

 

[Oscarr19]

650!?! They're like 300 bucks here with a stand. Haha for once Canada has a cheaper price lol

 

[KeeperOfFish]

Lol i might of missed this but i have a few questions. Are you using a sump and protein skimmer? Do you know if the biocube lights can support some corals?

Theres different versions of the biocube but my version has a skimmer but I don't have a sump but it's perfect still and the lights support like simple corals

 

[Oscarr19]

Ok thanks. simple corals is all i'm really interested in. Not looking into getting anything too complex lol

Oh do you have the HQI BioCube? It seems like the only one that has a built in protein skimmer.

I've had alot of success with my Biocube reef and am extremely familiar with the system, mods, add ons, ect. If you have any questions along the way feel free to ask, I have some pics of my tank if you wanted to look.

Alot of people get on peoples case about adding fish before cycling, I added fish my 2nd day after filling and they are still alive a year later, Biocubes are great for quickly cycling tanks, try adding cheato and a stocking of activated carbon in the 2nd chamber, this will improve your water quality fast!
