Questions & Answers

Could it be used for freshwater applications as well?

The tank would make a great freshwater aquarium, Willy.

Is there a heater included in the package? Is it not included or must be purchased separately?

There is no heater included in the package.

Is there enough clearance to access the back of the building Do you have a wall you can place this against?

Though you can put it up against a wall, I chose to have it in a corner, which gave me access to the chambers at the back of the room. I can look inside and see what is going on when maintenance is being done with a bright flashlight. For checking, there is glass in the back of the 2nd and 3rd chambers.

Is there a need for a heater for this tank if saltwater is going to be used? Is it possible to use most heaters?

We found that our lights were warm enough for the fish to keep the temperature in the proper Try getting a thermometer and keeping a close eye on it. Before you can introduce fish to the tank, it needs to cycle for at least a month. The decision can be made in a reasonable amount of time.

Rather than being touched, it splits down the side
3/5

This morning I got ready and went to work On the rounded edge of the right front side of the aquarium, a split occurs. Until somebody touched it, it remained untouchable. The bathroom is where I was shaving. In either case I would have been very uncomfortable if I wasn't at home or if I was asleep. I was lucky enough to save both my fish and my pen There is a small apartment behind me. As a result, buyers should beware. The tank I have been using for the last year or so.

Great tank, I really like it
5/5

In a nutshell My love for this tank has been only strengthened by a few MODS for the long haul, and it has been much easier to maintain. As a matter of fact, the majority of people will MOD their tanks as If you plan to use it as a stock tank, I think it will work fine main reason you pay for this tank is its lighting system, and it comes with a nice tank in general. As you can tell from the attached video which is louder than the tank, my computer is much louder than the tank. There was some cloud cover when I set it up, but over night it cleared up, which is totally Maybe use a damp sponge to clean your glass before adding anything, it would have been easier if you did not have any stuff in the tank. I forgot about that too, I have now cleaned it. Keep in mind that no chemicals cleaners should be used on the inside of the glass, regardless of whether it is empty. In fact, MODS are in demand On the Tunze, the media basket and 9001 Tunze skimmer are still working. Musangarrarrett appeared to have bashed this tank for being as noisy as a dirt devil, however, you can tell from the video that it was Shipment was handled well, but it would have been nice to be able to place fragile items or glass on the outside of the box. I was delighted that it arrived undamaged, as it had been unmarked. On the 1st night I did hear a slight rubbing sound from the fan, but I accidentally slammed the lid, and the sound has since gone away. The fan is still working. This is a bonus in terms of I had to float the pump up to connect the discharge hose to the outlet nozzle since the discharge hose from the pump was 2 inches too short. A letter was sent to the seller to resolve the issue. Excellent customer service. I have it mounted in front of my desk just above my filing cabinet, normally I would not recommend one full tank on a desk, but it seems to be working fine. I tested it by standing up and bouncing my desk before using it. The overall experience has been excellent after 3 weeks of research, and I am not regretting my first saltwater tank purchase.

It's awesome that I've got a Despite having only had my Biocube 16 up and running for three months, I am impressed by the results so far
5/5

My Reef experience has not been modified in any way. I am approaching it with a "Keep It Simple, Stupid" The water in my aquarium is changed every one month by 10% Make sure you don't get 'tinkeritis' for two weeks. Everything seems to be going well so far. For anyone who wants to get into Reef keeping but wants to keep things simple and not get overwhelmed, I highly recommend this kit. You must pay.

There is no such thing as I do not believe that it is worth the money and it is overrated
3/5

There is no way to remove the filter tree since the maker glued the rear bulkhead incorrectly. Embroider the removable filter strip in the appropriate location, since it's built in such a way that it won't line up. A cooling fan is making a noise like a garbage truck is passing by my house and the stand is a wobbly piece of junk made out of particle board. You can get it wet and it will blow up. If I had bought a conventional tank, I would have been a lot better off, but I had to stray from It is so stupid of me to do that.

Crack developed after 17 months on the tank Buying this product is not advisable
3/5

During the 17-month period our tank cracked on the right hand side of the top front seam. Water poured out of the light fixtures in the kitchen while I slept, so I woke up to a big mess in the kitchen. The manufacturer appears to have not addressed an apparent design flaw that has caused other 1 star reviews. I would advise to avoid this tank as it has an apparent known design flaw.

The ideal starter tank for beginners as well as Four days ago, I put my first fish in it
5/5

I got mine about a week ago, bought life rock and covered it with gravel. It's an amazing tank, lots of space. I have a chamber 1 for my heater and a coralife nano skimmer, and it These LED lights are excellent, and the timers are easy to set up. noise people complain about from the fan is still there (it took a week for mine to start being noisy), but I'm going to replace it with a computer silent fan, so it won't be a problem anymore. Only the fan noise is an issue with this tank, but since you get such an amazing tank for such a great price I'm not going to knock a star off just because it's easy to.

That is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen
5/5

A couple of weeks ago, I set up my Coralife Biocube 32. This is my dream car. There is a nice thickness to the glass. There is very little noise coming from the pump. It is beautiful to watch the LEDs. Having not read the instructions, I started programming the lights without success. As a result, I had incorrectly set the light programming to work on a 24 hour clock instead of Having read the instructions, all made sense to me once I took a moment to think about it. There is ample space in the filtration area at the back of the tank where you can reach down and modify the filtration system if needed. For example, you can add sponges, carbon or bioballs to the filtration system. Besides the Coralife skimmer, I also got the Acer MC-1 heater, but it has not been installed yet. My sister is going to receive an aquarium as a Christmas present from me because I am so satisfied with my aquarium.
