So I was considering buying a small frag rack for my biocube. I had some time to burn so I stopped at menards to price some egg crate and magnets/ suction cups to make my own. As I didn't need a full 2x4ft piece for 15 bucks I set off to see what else I could find. I went down the vent aisle and...

My media rack just came in and I've slowly been taking out the bio balls. Does anyone have any pointers on installation? I'm pretty sure I have to take out the false floor in chamber 2 and widen the wall between 1&2. I'm planning on running floss, purigen, and Cpe. I'm excited about the results...

Does anyone have any recommendations on where to place my new double branched hammer coral. I have a stock biocube.

Anyone have any ideas or comments. I was wondering if anyone has put chemipure in place of their filter sponge in chamber three. I currently have chemipure under my overflow tray and above my bioballs in chamber 2. My tank is still young and I heard bad things about the sponge. I'm just...

I am pretty much running a stock 14 biocube and from reading alot of the posts, I've bought some frequently used products. I purchased a small bag of purigen which was recommended for tanks that are 10-20 gallons. I currently have it placed in front of my oceanic fiber filter in the first...
