hey guys i got my biocube 4 weeks ago and every thing is doing great i have 2 Ocellaris clowns 1 firefish and 1 Coral beauty right now probably only add 1 more fish and for coral i have a frag of pulsing xania and a blue mushroom now that i got all my fish in there im gonna start putting in corals and adding a powerhead but every thing is doing great i really like the 29 gallon biocube.. i will be adding updates when thing go on.
the only other fish im putting in there is a green mandarin thats it for fish im putting a skunk clearner shrimp later on and for coral just like soft corals i might get a anemone for the clowns but i dont know yet bc i dont want it to sting any of my other corals i dont know yet i might and maybe a decorator crab..
things look good man..and your fish stocking choice sounds nice too.a rainbow of colors..remember that the decorator crab may decide to utilize your coral sometimes..
various factors come into play when it comes too blooms..first would be excess of nutrients so check your perameters including phosphates and nitrates..down the photoperiod a little..add clean up crew acordingly carefull not to overstock..it sould be a few days or a couple weeks..hard to tell...especialy when in the dark about the eviroment..
yea so i got a water sample and i have a little bit on nitrites but i did a water change and i will be adding a sand sifter goby in and will help with the sand. and i addd a frogspawn and a leather and some eagle eye polyps..
had any one had a golden headed sleeper goby i got 1 two days ago and he burrowed him self under live rock in the sand i see his head sometimes poke out of the bottom of the rock but hes not coming out of his burrow is this normal in the beginning they burrow a home get used to the new tank and then when they are comfortable he will come out???
Hi everyone so far my biocube is great but the only thing is that one of the fans is making alot of noise so i unpluged that fan and i have the other one running right now until i get a new 1 but the fan was working it just was making a lot of noise any one had this problem and how did you fix it???
yea and im soo pissed tho my green bubble tip got stuck in the filter and got riped in 3 peaces soo im going to get a carpet now ill put a pic up when i get it.
yeah all anemones can get caught up in the intake....and dont forget that the carpets are extremly evil as far as there sting..i have had pavonas corals go white almost instantly from a single brush from a maxi mini and the standards are just as bad...give it room as it can creep so to speak.
that is the coolest carpet...purple...i want one so bad..my local pet stores have nothing in comparison.i do have a nice green and a couple of confetti maxi minis.but nothing like that...thanks for the pic..
i really hope my clowns host it because they bin hosting my frogspawn and i dont want them to and when to make them host the carpet??
