Return of the cube
12x12x12 Deep Blue Cube.
Will be using the same frame work and light from the 8 inch cube I had up previously. Still to do, Either mod HOB filter to skim or make micro sump. Mount light. Level platform. Monitor temp to see if heater is needed..

Was going to work on it today but ran out of time, there are a few snails, asteria, and bristle worms crawling around in it. The were in the bucket of old sand I used from my 40AIO...
Gonna look online for some tiny shrimp to put in it...

Had a flare up of dinos, looks like the tank has beaten them back on its own, doing a water change when I get off work, guess I will see then...
Getting two peppermint shrimp this payday to get rid of the aiptasia...
