So... Completely new to the aquarium world. had a few small betta tanks when I was little, but have finally made the decision to get my feet wet. I bought a Biocube 32 LED early June and has been running since. I'm quickly learning I need some deeper pockets :) At work now but heres a few pictures of it so far.

Day 1.

A few more pics of the tank taken today. Added a make shift fuge instead of buying the intank one. I might get it down the road. For the meantime it will do as ive been battling some algea and the chaeto already is showing its doing its job. Also have coralife skimmer (not liking it too much) in tank media basket with phosguard matrix carbon, and purigen. Heater not in yet. I'm in Florida so tank stays where it needs to be. Will throw it in in the "winter." Got they hydor rotating attachment as well and a 250gph power head.

My meteor shower dosnt seem to be doing so well. I've had it in low light areas when I first got it. Now I put it out into the light to see if that helps. Any tips? All my params are in line.
