Brand New 8 gallon bio cube

[Katrina71]

Now I'm thinkin.
What if I pull the glass from a deep picture frame, center the sign and use strip lights inside on all four walls facing the sign and light it that way??

That would look good.

We gotta get you some more live rock first my brother.

I have plenty, it's cycled in a brute can. The 20 is temporary. Plan is to buy the overflow/holesaw first week of august and then the plumbing first week of september. That's all I need really.
My cool rockscape setup that I made for my cube will go into my daughter's 40 breeder instead. I'll have to make another scape for mine.

I need to break down and buy some pretty zoas. I have three no name kinds and they are boring.



@Why-Me where did you get those?

I just re-read the post apparently I get a kelly green psammocora for free with the zoas
We also have a thread titled frag it forward where we donate things to those who need them or just to make space in the garage or wherever.
I believe the 20 gal that I'm currently using as temp tank was given to me in frag it forward at 2018 spring frag swap
Maybe we should do that?? FIF

I'm doing that with a couple of guys down in my neck of the woods. I hope they pass it forward as well.

@Why-Me what did you do to prep sign for life above the tank.

Not sure how well it works, I'll found out soon enough. It went on thin like wd40 dried clear with almost no sign of being sprayed. Honestly when I went to Menards I thought I was getting outdoor rugged clear coat spray paint, not this stuff. But doesn't seem bad and can be cleaned off with solvent or something like that, if you choose to paint it down the road. So WCS I strip it and paint or clear coat it.

I like the frag it forward idea. I would like to see that on a local level

Its one of my customers. They have a plasma cutter. If you like the finished project I'll see if they will take orders. From the description of pervious projects they are good. Crossed fingers

What you guys think for $30? there's like 10 or 12 polyps

Looks like a good deal.
