Biocube 14 Lighting

[DrewG]

One of the bulbs in my biocube 14 is out and I am having trouble locating a replacement. It was one of my blue lights. I only have one coral in the tank at the top. This is the old biocube before LEDs. Should I buy a new lighting system? Any recommendations for something that would work well on the little cube or if there are replacement bulbs somewhere out there should I just get a new bulb? Thanks!

Would you consider going hoodless? Also where are you going with the build, sps, lps or softie only? Think you might upgrade tanks in the near future?

I would go hoodless. I imagine it would be cooler in the summer and also bring more oxygen into the water?

Yes, at the cost of a bit more evaporation and the potential for fish jumping.

You can order the led replacement hood.

Do you know any place I can order hood with led?

Interested in what you did. I’m having the same issue with my biocube 29. The lights are shot and I can’t find new ones. Replacing the light doesn’t seem like it will be cheap. I’m thinking about just doing a different style tank like a water box or Red Sea. I like how they look way more than my biocube also and it will set me back about the same amount.
