Great tank - I'm lookin at gettin one of these and would love to hear about your experience with this tank/brand.
I hope mine looks as good at 3 months!!

The oceanic bio cube is a good tank, not expensive, all self contained. The mandarin eats frozen brine.

 

[Aquadelight]

My mandarin will eat the brine out of the water column and then pick up blood worms from the sand. Have you tried this?

 

[crazylion]

No I have'nt he just chases the brine around on the sand and everywhere.

Hey hi . Good job , got my cube for almost a year. Some advice, don't go crazy on the mods. I did some but only after deciding if needed it for my tank to be better. If your corals are fine and your water is good quality; you don't need too much modifications. I got my original biocube skimmer and it works great. The only mods i did , is in my second chamber, i made a refugium. I'll upload pics soon , my cam is shot lol. It only cost me $ 35. By the way you don't need rock rubbles in your fuge, just Chio alges. The light 13w and some velcro. First chamber , the skimmer, and 3 chamber, the pump( i changed it for a maxi-jet 1200 , $34 for better flow and i got rid of the elbow for better flow as well, will show in pics later. As for the lights, my original ones works fine and are enough. One thing the guys who upgrade their light don't say, is that more alges are created with stronger light in the cube and thats bad, it overwhelm you skimmer and them you got to upgrade it and so on... So if your bioload is fine withe lights, the skimmer and pump you got , no need to spend $$ for mods.

Happy reefing
