Biocube?

Hi all, as of yet i don't have a marine tank only a little 70l tropical.
anyways i have seen a lot of people using the oceanic biocubes, are they any good? where could i get one in the North West from? and what else would i need to get and how much? (i have about 500, but not wanting to spend it all)

Thanks, kayak123

 

I am new to aquariums. But I just got a biochbe29 and I love it. Also bought the stand.It does not come with a heater and be sure if you get one to check all the lights before you set up. For me third time was the charm.
Got tank stand and heater for $550 at pet smart.

 

nice nanos IMO, i also have a RSM. i think i prefer the biocube. just be aware of its limitations, soft coral only. also grab a hydor 1 and nano for more flow. ppl advise on get rid of the bio balls, i have had mine in for close to 2 years.

 

Hi Kayak 123 - where abouts in North West - if its Manchester area - try Oasis Aquariums on Broughton bride - Trevor the boss is a great bloke and even if they do not stock- he will order for you

thanks steve I'm wigan way so thats not too far. does he sell all that i would need?

 

Kayak - he will not only sell you all you need- he may even be able to offer you better suggestions based on the guys comments on your other post - if you do decide to do your own thing rather than this cube

PS - You wont regret visiting and you will not be sold anything you dont need

 

Honestly, you can do better putting it together yourself. Not only will you attain a better understanding of that which you are buying, but the quality will be much higher. Better skimming, better lighting, better powerheads, etc, etc, etc. If you need suggestions as to what to outfit your tank with....we can help you out bigtime.

 

I have a biocube 14 and have had issues with it, fan and a ballast going out. Their service has been fantastic, the parts were sent out no questions asked. For the money it can't be beat, I would recommend it.
