Just talked to my LFS Owner...

I just got done talking to our LFS owner, I told him what I was wanting to do. Which is getting prepared for my first saltwater tank. He seemed very helpful when answering my questions. He was really making me lean towards getting a 29g Biocube, because everything is nicely hidden, the only other equipment I would need is a heater, and a powerhead or two. I got to look at a 29g Biocube they had set up in the store and I must say they look sleek and sexy lol. The LFS was slightly more expensive then If you got one from a big outlet like petco, bet I wouldn't mind the extra $20 because I'd be supporting the only local Aquarium only store around. I don't think he is just trying to sell me a product just because, but I don't know business is business I guess...What do you guys think?

Oh yeah, and I got to see several different pairs of Clown fish and they looked so cool! I think those would be at the top of my list of the possible fish to put in my tank.

What do you guys think about the Bio 29's? On paper they look great, Would I be able to eventually put in a Coral or two once the tank is mature? I know I have seen some pictures of Bio's on here with some awesome looking reef materials, but I don't know if they used stock lighting or not.

 

They're good starter tanks. I would personally look at one of the Oceanic HQI Biocube, better lighting and better for future coral purchases than the crappy stock PC lighting on the old versions, which is good for LPS and softies, at best.

yeah they are great, i have a 29g but its just a reg 29g, and you can put coral in there once they are done cycling.

 

bio cubes a good starter tanks. you'll be able to keep a few corals in there with there stock pc lighting. just remember though not to many fishes will fit in a 29g tank. so if your into alot or bigger fishes that wont be the tank. make sure you get the skimmer too.

 

Yeah I know, Maybe a pair of clowns and one other fish? It's my first saltwater tank so I'm going to take it easy
