Reefing newb
My plan for this aquarium was to create an All-In-One design. All equipment will be hidden by a rock/foam wall.

Building Process
Heres the tank i am working with. Just like the design.
Ol, so i ordered 10 lbs of pukini dry rock. I broke apart the rocks and zip-tied them to the egg crate. Two pieces of egg crate will be used. BTW, the pukini dry rock is great. When i first started my biocube i went with the reef savor rock. I wish i order pukani rock for the biocube.
The next step was to add great stuff foam around the rock.
After that was to epoxy and sand the pieces so it looks real. This step took the most time and a couple days. Heres the shot of the tank before i added water.
Then with water and the FTS. Sand storm.
So now the cycling process. I have a maxi jet pump in the back and it provides plenty of flow for the entire tank. Filtration is just going to be filter floss, purigen, and chemi-pure. Weekly water changes once the cycle is done.
For lighting i am going to order one panorama pro led module and a stunner strip. This should be enough lighting for any coral i want.
The plan for live stock is simple. Just a goby/pistol pair and maybe some sexy shrimp. Most of the coral that is going in this tank will come from my biocube 29. I have plenty coral to trim down in there.
So, what do you guys think?
