Hello all,
I've had my first tank (a biocube 29) for about a month now. I've been reading a lot of threads across various forums, advice from a couple fish stores around me, and decided that the tank needs something more than stock. I'm looking to see what you all think are some good mods for the tank.
For the first chamber, I heard that it's probably best to ditch the stock filter and replace it with something. Would live rock rubble be a good choice here? If so, how much would I put in, and about how high should I fill it? Are there any other options?
The second chamber I'm going to be putting in a sapphire skimmer, but am not sure how much room it leaves. Should/could I put something else in here as well?
For the third chamber, are there any upgrades I can do for it? Is the single sponge that comes stock with it enough? Are there any other things that could be better? I don't think I'm going to be replacing the stock pump for now unless I hear some really convincing arguments, since what I've read thus far hasn't made me think I need to.
Thanks for all your advice!
