i just bought a 29 biocube in calgary from golds aquarium for $279 thought it was a sweet price since they are $429 at big al's in edmonton, i like to support local businesses but $150 difference is worth the drive. just thought i would share that

Is that a miss price? I think it's ~400ish at J & L also for the 29 cube.

Cheers,

it has the stock lighting on it, maybe add two more of the lights that it comes with they have kits on nanotuners.com i built my own stand out of 3/4" mdf kinda made it overkill and doubled up the top, bottom and sides and primed it and painted it gloss black. and stocked it with 2 false percs, 1 coral beauty, 1 psychedelic mandarin goby, 2 cleaner shrimp, 3 blue legged crabs and 1 blue/black knuckled crab

Dropped by J&L, Big Al's and also King Ed's yesterday.

Biocube 29g prices were:

King Ed's $299
J&L $299
Big Al's $349

So $279 is a damned good price!

The stands were priced at $139 (J&L) and $169 (King Ed's).

nikygm - do you have any pics of your set-up?

Those $400 and $479 prices must include the stands.

Good snag for $279! :)
