    Hey guys,
    Just as the title states, wondering which would be
    The better choice. The red sea comes with the matching
    stand and goes for 400. Biocube doesn't but is new
    And goes for 475$+taxes!
    Suggestions anyone?

    Larger tank with stand for less money... definitely the Red Sea.

    Id also go with the red sea nano. Im a big fan of red sea products and the larger size, even if its just a few gallons is a plus.

    If that's the biocube with the PC lights, then whoever is selling it it out of their mind. Less than $300.00 online with free shipping. If it's the LED or HQI, then that's different. Red seas are normally expensive, but for $400.00 with stand seems like the deal to me.

    If the biocube has the PC light, then $475.00 is a rip off.
    You can buy it new on amazon.com from a good company called Marine and Reef for $286.00 With shipping

    If you mean the Red sea has the PC lights, $400.00 is a steal with the stand. If it's in good condition. They go for around $750.00 new, without the stand.
