Will it crash through the floor?

photos tonight! I saw it and caved it was just the upgrade I was looking for. If I'm using an existing tank to stock it how long should I let it cycle for?
this thing is almost 6 feet tall with the stand! it's enormous! I love cube tanks personally and I got a screaming deal on it.

As long as you use new sand and don't disturb the sandbed in the old tank, move the rocks quickly. You shouldn't have much of a cycle at all.

brand new sand absolutly mines getting kinda ugly! I'm tempted to use sugar sand because I like the looks of it and it's way cheaper (if you know where to get it) but I heard it's a PITA...as far as corals go. go figure my tank is finally mature and nice and I NEED TO MAKE IT BIGGER! still never stop learning. I'm also thinking of changing the halides that came with it over to LED's .

I went with special grade reef sand in my new tank and like it way better than sugar size. Way less storms especially if you have a sand sifting goby. I have one area in the tank that the sand would disappear from , so I added a cup of Crushed coral and it solved that problem.
Not sure of your requirements , but I love my radion LEDS.

Radions are wonderful but I'm a stay at home contractor so those aren't in the cards for er awhile.
unless someone needs some design work done har har har

Oh! That's the 24X24X24 one that was on Kijiji right!? I was seriously considering it! Take photos when you get it set up, please!!

Go for it provided you do not add heavy fish like tangs.

[Aysha]

Nope this is the cube off out of Steves store it's even better.
tangs weigh at least 600lbs each I'd have to be crazy!

If you can use a solder iron then you can make a better Led fixture for a fraction of the cost. Http://aquastyleonline.com
