Are there any cold water species that do well in aquariums?

I got a 29 gallon biocube and I loved the look but hated all of the equipment. It didn't seem safe. I bought it used and it must have had some issues. I know they're cool little tanks. However, for the sake of avoiding an electrical fire, I got a 25 gallon tall tank and switched everything over...

I'm planning my 100 gallon reef. The tank is still very dirty (turtles) and sitting in my fish room. Plus, I am in school full time, so I don't have much time or money. So this is going to be a lot of research and a small amount of progress starting out. Right now, I'm trying to decide on...
