cooked my 29g biocube

OK, got up yesterday and afterthe fog lifted in my head i noticed no movement in my biocube, I got up and checked and the heater had malfunctioned ( stealth heater) and cooked everything in the tank. The temperature was so high that the thermometer was maxed out. The red was up past where the temp increments are marked...Im sure it cooked off all the good bacteria, all the stars, snails, clams, and the wolf eel were belly up. Luckily they were the only things in the tank, no corals or other fish...So now the question is what do i put in there now (besides a new heater) ?

A small Neptune Apex Jr to control that new heater and lights.
They run about $249 it is a great investment.

I'm not a fan of Neptune but I am a fan of controllers. Once you go controller you wont go back

If you are comouter savvy the Reef angel has been wonderful for me. It comes with PH,temp, ATO out of the box for $219.00. Unlimited expansion and great support.

That the same thing but a controller is a great investment. Reef keeper lite is nice for a cube and nice on the wallet at 100
