Considering a BioCube 8Gl, who has one?

Cassette87 · 06-13-2007, 03:27 PM

I've suddenly got the itch to start a second, smaller aquarium. Of course I would love to have a 75 or 90 gallon setup, but for the time being, that is simply out of the question, so I've been lurking around reading a couple sites etc, regarding nano tanks, and what products are out there. The Biocube 8gl really sparked my interest, and seems like it would be a neat little addition to my addiction. I'm just curious if anyone here has any input on this tank and or size. I would likley keep a single fish with coral, and cleaning crew. Any input on this? Does anyone else have the 8 gallon biocube? any pictures? Thanks in advance everone!

Also, if anyone knows on a place to get a deal on one, that'd be cool too

Thanks!

Andy

Here's a pic of my 5g, it's an Odyssea, cheaper version than the BioCube, wish I had known about them before I got the Odyssea. But it seems to be doing well. Just have the filter that came with it, have some carbon in it. No skimmer. Planning on moving the gang to a 37 in a while.

Nice little set up! I found a LFS that will sell me a 8 g biocube for 126, no tax. What do you guys think? anyone with any size biocube have any comments +/- about them? I would love to set this thing up, but not 100% sure yet!

Well i ordered it... should arrive in a week or so then i can grab it. I'm not sure if i'll set it up right away, and I'm not sure if i'll do it at home or in the office... I really would love to have one at work, but to many possibilities for trouble there... anyways, I'll be starting a reef chronicle of it once it comes in!

nice find! i snapped one up for 99 on a special last week. i'm going to do a planted tetra tank with it, though, i don't think i could keep up with 2 reefs right now.

looking forward to the chronicle!
