I've looked into those ginu, I think I will invest in one soon.

So I made the grown up decision and put my biocube up for sale ...
BECAUSE I GOT A NEW TANK:mrgreen:

60 gallon starfire cube with 30gallon sump currently running metal halide but will swap out for LED's .
it's got an internal overflow which is kind of obnoxious but I'll cope.

I looked at what a chiller and new lights for the bio would cost and decided I'd rather have a bigger tank . Bios don't gain any resale value when you jam 300.00 in lights in them!

I figured most of the corals were nuked and I'd have to go big or go home.

Grats on the 60g. I just got a 75g as well and have to drain to level the thing...

I would recommend to try LEDs before purchasing a chiller as you might not necessarily need a chiller with LEDs.

Currently I'm looking at the radions and I will get one pretty soon but man they not cheap by any means... I'm wondering if they will drop the prices since more companies are coming out with more affordable competitive LEDs

And please get an aquarium controller... You or anyone owning an aquarium will not regret investing in one. Best purchase hands down.

I'll be going shopping in the next few months. I have to wait for the new aquarium to cycle before I do anything.
lol too bloody exciting.

I doubt I'll need a chiller right away I'd rather spend the money on a fancy skimmer or something.

the aquarium controllers are on my list for sure now that I have a bigger aquarium.

Yup u highly doubt youll need a chiller with leds also, I turned my heater down 5 degrees for summer, and its maintained about 77.8 avg.

stupid question, but can I move the stock from my old tank over to my new one without issues or will I have to cycle the new one from scratch?
