Hi guys this is my 29g biocube, it was started in February of this year it's lit by a rapid led biocube kit that i put together myself. It has 24 cree led's, (8) 5 watt cool whites, (8) 3 watt royal blues, (8) 3 watt blues. I've modified the back of the tank completely, in the first chamber i have a 300 watt titanium heater, in the center i have a media basket from intank and rock rubble where the skimmer should go. Last chamber is my return which is the stock oceanic pump with a spin stream at the end.

Fish:
Premium snowflake clown
ORA naked clown
Six line wrasse
Yellow watchmen goby

Inverts:
Bi-color bubble tip anemone
Cleaner shrimp
peppermint shrimp
Standard clean up crew

Corals:
Lots of zoas and palys
LPS, red green blasto, kryptonite candy canes, canes chalice, dendro coral.
SPS, red monti cap, ponape birdsnest, green birdsnest , forest fire digi, montipora setosa
My only leather is a green toadstool

Maintenance & Filtration
I try to keep this tank as simple as possible since i'm upgrading to a bigger tank soon. I do a 5 gallon water change every week and dose seachem Fuel. I add c-balance 2 part as needed.
 
Beautiful!! Great Clown choices!! Do they ever go after your Sexy Shrimp? I Love the Palys you grabbed too, Wow's are one of my Favorites I love that Yellow Green they have!!

Thanks! I love clowns and I wanted to mix it up in this tank too see what would happen if I put the naked and snowflake together. So far they've been good with each other, normal shaking and chasing around. I added 4 sexy shrimps without knowing that the sixline wrasse has a taste for small inverts lol and they are all gone .
 
Too bad about your sexys. I've had a small cleaner shrimp and a small emerald crab disappear shortly after adding them to my tank. I'm pretty sure it's either my sixline of flame hawk. If I can find out which one, I'll definitely remove him/her. I need an emerald crab because of bubble algae in plague proportions!
 
Looks good!

Sucks to hear, in my opinion it might of been the flame hawk because the six line wrasse has a really small mouth and at least mines doesn't mess with either the cleaner shrimp or the peppermint shrimp. Try a bigger emerald because if you pop the bubble algae in the tank the spores spread quick.
