Hi! I have just returned to saltwater after a 12 year tropical only world. My first Marine experiences were frustrating. In other words, many deaths. In 8/07 I setup a BioCube 29 gallon tank. I got back into Marine fish when Big Al's opened near to me. So far, very good. The Big Al's staff have been great and very helpful. I really only have had 2 fish casualties and one coral issue. The one fish came down with ick and I'm not sure what did the other one in. The coral had a problem with parasites. Luckily it was my first coral.
