Lovely big nano,

This review is from: Oceanic BioCube - 29 GALLON BIOCUBE (Misc.)
We did not purchase our BC29 from this source, but wanted to review the product. We've had the BC29 for almost a year now, and it has been a pleasure to own and operate. We use it as a nano reef tank with live rock, corals, and a few fish/shrimp. It comes with almost everything you need to get started - tank, hood, lights, filter chambers and filters, return pump, and other little goodies. You will still need a heater and may want to do some modifying of the filters and chambers depending on your use. It's size is just right to make cleaning a snap, yet still provide sufficient room for all the goodies you may need.
We modified the back chambers by making the first overflow wider and removing its false bottom. This allows more flow and permits the addition of a protein skimmer or heater. We have a heater in chamber 1, live rock and cheato in chamber 2, and the return pump in chamber 3. We did upgrade the return pump for more flow, but one could live with the included pump with no problems. We currently have the default hood and lights. While I do want to upgrade, so I can have more variety in the tank, it is very costly to do so. For now, the provided hood does the trick for our current stock list. Oceanic developed a fine product, and we highly recommend it for freshwater or saltwater.

This tank is killing my fish,
By JESS (Murrieta, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Oceanic BioCube - 29 GALLON BIOCUBE (Misc.)
I regretfully have to write this review, and hopefully help others avoid the sadness that I have experienced due to faulty engineering. Just tonight, my little clownfish jumped into the rear pump area. I rescued him, but it looks like his little back is broken. How could Oceanic design such a tank that leaves room for the animals to jump over the separater? It's not right. Please, buy a normal tank until they get this problem fixed.

very disappointing,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Oceanic BioCube - 29 GALLON BIOCUBE (Misc.)
Purchased the 29 gal biocube in June, 2010. Started out fine, looked great, arrived complete and seemed to be fine so I started the cycling of my intended reef tank. Within 2 weeks, the lights started going off when I closed the door located in the back of hood. So I received a call from Oceanic,( after they ignored my emails and phone messages,) they did call right away when I complained directly to amazon and petsolutions, who are the companys that sold me the tank, they where both on it, kudos to them.
The lady I spoke to suggestioned I take the hood apart and fix the short in the lights myself, I laughed in her face and said no, she then sent me a replacement hood and a return box to send back the original hood, well the new hood is more screwed up the the original hood, lights and fans do not work properly and the large, plastic secure screws used for securing the plug ins for lights are on up side down! The company has major quality control issues and I strongly advise anyone not to purchase this product until these issues are resolved. By the way, the company never once followed up to see if things where resolved with the new hood!!
