I've decided that I really want a rimless cube. Is there anywhere is here I could cut cost? Low cost AIO/sump cube + stand kit alternatives? Am I missing any items from my list? (besides foods, nets, dips, clamps) I'm not dead set on either fish besides the frostbite subzero clowns.

Make sure the biocube stand works. I know it is slightly curved. I also have a mr. aqua 25 gallon cube. I run it with a hob refugium and built my own stand for it.
