New guy setting up a 29 biocube

[Rudolfo Martinez]

Hello all!

I am new to the wonderful world of salt and have decided to jump in with a Coralife 29 biocube. I found the little guy on Craigslist with stand for $90!

After cleaning and giving some touch ups with a sharpie, I filled with 20# of Pukani dry rock from BRS and 20# of black Indo-Pacific argalive live sand and finally water testing at 1.026.

It's been one day with my stock pump and Koralia wave powerhead.

I plan on cycling for the next 4-6 weeks while I save up for other equipment including a retro light kit (nanobox vs steves leds vs ??), media reactors, refugium, whatever.


Here for the advice, wisdom and jokes of fellow enthusiasts so bring it on!
