Or, for barely more money than a questionable ebay light you can get this and keep your hood
. I have this and love it. You can go non-dimmable for $25 less. Add $30 I think if you get their dim kit until you get a controller.http://www.rapidled.com/servlet/the-189/Biocube-29-Dimmable-Retrofit/Detail
I like that a bunch. but the Previous owner of my cube cut the back part of the hood off. so the hoods a pain... i have been looking for replacement hoods but they are expensive
my thought with the ebay one is that when i upgrade to a bigger tank i can use it still, and am not pinned down to the biocube hood retrofit....
i will keep searching for a replacement used hood.. maybe i can score one soon.
obviously i dont NEED LED's, but do we really ever NEED any of this stuff, we just WANT it....

You are correct! Sucks about the hood. Just do your research on the 1w LED's to make sure they'll be adequate. Especially if you plan on using them on other tanks in the future.
Pic 1 -- What is that thing to the right of the white/grey snail (center of the pic)
Pic 2 -- same thing... what is it?
Pic 3 and 6 -- what are these white discs on the live rock?

Pic 1 and 2 not sure
Pic 3 and 6 not sure but I have a bunch of the same. Sponge maybe?
The rest look like sponges to me. I have a huge colony of sponge now on one of my rocks. I've been told that's a good thing.

In the pics it's hard to tell but do they have a tube structure to them?
Better yet, do they look like this? At the bottom left you can clearly see a tube that isn't visible on the sponges in the upper right.

Nice move on the BRS RODI setup, I have the same one and it's been great! Your anenome is going to move whenever he feels like, not much you can do there. If you are really worried - move the corals!

It's not the fastest, but I have a small tank (28g) so I only do weekly water changes of 5 gallons. It kicks out about 2.5 gallons in 5-10 min once it's fully stocked. I usually do that every other day and have more than enough water for what I'm doing

Hey BlueChip, how big is your tank? Sounds like you have a good setup for mixing water!
