    Nice piece, keep an eye on the tips. They look a little rough, idk if its burns or sand that may have caused that.

    Gonna try something different. As of a few weeks ago, my Chaeto could no longer survive in my tank due to my low nutrient levels so I ditched the macro. Since all I had in the sump was sand and rock, I turned it into a frag sump. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1355443293.943799.jpg ImageUploadedByTapatalk1355443313.132320.jpg

    This will be the last post on my biocube. I will be tearing down and selling it all to start a 60g deep blue cube that I got. I will be transferring all the gadgets over with a custom full spec LED build.

    I'll do this one nice and slow, look for a new thread from me in 3-4 months!

    Thanks, tearing down by choice. This cube build has taught me so much and I feel like I'm ready for something bigger. Also I have been wanting fish that are just too small for the BC.
