Kevin's 8 Gallon Biocube
Well I picked up my biocube 8g yesterday. Too bad the guy didnt mention some minor defects of the tank...
While I got it for 60$, one of the ballasts was out, so theres another 35$ already spotted for the tank. Hopefully get that in soon, luckily the other works so I'm still able to run my new 10000k lights. Just not actinics until the new ballast comes in.... It took a bit of cleaning as well, the guy I bought this from clearly didn't know much of what he was doing. He threw in the anemone he had and one rock that was in the tank, as well as a few frags. The frags I might be able to save, I'll be taking them down to my brother (rwynn) here in a few days for his tank.
But, after a while of cleaning and getting it all back together with the appropriate-ness of what it should be. Its not a bad little deal
I forgot about taking pictures until after I had started cleaning, which is probably a good thing anyways haha. Anywho, here we go:
I did take some tests today, it seems I've already got a little bit of ammonia (0.25) starting up. Which is always nice to have my tank get its cycle off to a good and quick start.
I'll take more pics tomorrow after I introduce the rest of the rock so you can see how thats turning out.
