Travis Posted September 14, 2004 Share Posted September 14, 2004 lookin good, did you do any mods to it? or is it just a stock cube? Link to comment
mgalyk Posted September 14, 2004 Author Share Posted September 14, 2004 Stock. I would like to put a higher watt bulb in it but I dont want to have to go retrofit with it or anything. I am still researching what others with the nano cube have done. Link to comment
mgalyk Posted September 30, 2004 Author Share Posted September 30, 2004 Just finished adding a 2nd 28 watt Cf to the hood I will post a pic soon!:nerd: Link to comment
Trigger71 Posted October 1, 2004 Share Posted October 1, 2004 Hey mgalyk, I'm thinking of getting one of those nano-cubes myself and after looking at yours, it's no longer a thought - I'm going to get one now. Coulple questions for you... 1). How much live rock is in there? 2). How long are you going to let it cycle? Looks great by the way!! Link to comment
Howf777 Posted October 1, 2004 Share Posted October 1, 2004 hey trigger71 you should wait for the delux to come out, ppl on this forum are saying anyday now comes with dual fans and 2 (24w) 50/50 this way you wont have to retrofit another one, unless you want like 80w to keep more demanding corals just a thought Link to comment
reillyse Posted October 1, 2004 Share Posted October 1, 2004 People keep talking about how the JBJ Nano Cube Delux hasnt come out yet. But i purchased one at my LFS about 2 weeks ago that has the dual cooling fans. Isnt this the new deluxe model? Link to comment
mgalyk Posted October 1, 2004 Author Share Posted October 1, 2004 I have had mine for about 2 weeks. I have around 20 lbs of live rock. I checked my water yesterday and my Nitrites are 0 and my Nitrates are around 10 to 20 ppm. So I think I am about ready to start adding some Crabs and Snails. I have a 55 gal reef tank that I have had for about 2 years and after about a week I took a couple of Turbo snails from that tank and put them in the nano and they are going to town on the algea. I am very pleased with the nano cubeB) Link to comment
dmartin72 Posted October 10, 2004 Share Posted October 10, 2004 reillyse, The model you saw was the updated version of the original nano cube. They added fans. The new model has 48 watts of CF. David in DC Link to comment
dmartin72 Posted October 10, 2004 Share Posted October 10, 2004 I have two new deluxe nano cubes coming tomorrow. I was thinking about supplementing the 48 watts of CF with a metal halide so that I can keep a clam. Suggestion/concerns? David PS What other mods should be considered? Link to comment
natrate Posted October 22, 2004 Share Posted October 22, 2004 Melting would be a concern. And boiling water. Link to comment
