    Just picked up a biocube 29

    I just got a biocube from a friend for 50 bucks.. great deal I thought, so anyways I would love to do a full blown reef in the biocube. I see a lot of people modifying their biocubes. For a successful reef in the tank should I change anything or run it stock minus the bio balls.
