    Looking Good! Reminds me of my nano... sadly it is in the garage after the pump broke down. Still havent had time to fix it.

    But yeah! Karma for the sweet setup!

    :) thanks, well im sad i didnt post up a thing like this of my 55g and 75g, so i can see ther progress,
    and yeah when my friend gave me this it didnt have the pump, but we just bought a replacement for 18$ online, and everything we need ^.^

    and i have a noobie question
    when do you think the earliest ill be able to put a damsel in?
    because i have this one really cool looking damsel at a LPS that i kind of want, and i know in my other tank i waited about 2weeks to put in some damsels.

    I think putting in fish for the cycle is cruel, I would wait till cycle is done, THink of the pain, and gill burning they will go through,

    i like biocubes,
    but my friend is a noobie at aquariums and was like "man its expensive 8$ for a fish!!!" cause he had it as a freshwater, and he didnt want it anymore, so i got it for free. so whynot :D
    only needed a replacement pump, 2 fans & filter stuff, so whynot.

    If im correct the aquapod is like biocube with 3 chambers right? the second one has the bioballs in it? If so you should take them out and put in Lr Rubble,

    yeah i know :|
    but like when i did it on my first tank (55g) didnt seem to have any losses, and the damsels are doing great today,
    but on my 75g when i got it we had to start fresh.
    and we got 2 extra clownfish, sadly ours fought so we had to put them into the tank after about 1week, but they did perfectly fine because we had so much live rock, that it cycled in like a week, pretty cool :D
