I'm just starting my tank and this is the tank I picked nice to finally see what I can do with it

[noelkavanagh]

Great video and tank looks really well thought out with room for media basket and skimmer.

[RoosterRew]

these new stands are interesting. would probably like this MUCH more than the older IM stand that i got from MD.

[frankhuang]

i actually bought this tank after watching this video lol. the only advice i'd give is to upgrade the stock pump. it's really loud. otherwise i think it's a pretty sleek tank with no major drawbacks.

[nightrider]

the stands are the ones they need to make universal it be great to see that

[sinatra]

Is there a upgrade pump for the fusion cube 15 and if you dont mind what protein skimmer will fit if I need one in such a small tank? Thank you!

[geraldzhang]

Would a single AI Prime HD light work for this tank?

[NoahE]

Do you absolutely need the bottom reservoir for a tank that size.

[UnfilteredJustice]

That media basket is the same style and everything that inTank makes for biocubes and Fluval all in one tanks. Don't know if they do IM tanks yet. I wonder if that's a patented product because this one is identical to theirs, right down to the hole sizes and removable sliding wall. Does the middle shelf pop out as well?

[theavreefguy]

I have the Im skimmer and no matter how long I leave running it running to break in or how much filter floss I use I can't get it to stop producing micro bubbles. Any thoughts? It's kind of frustrating 😂

[joyhsiao]

I am new to aquariums and looking into this setup. You mentioned if we want to use Current USA Orbit Marine IC LED light we will have to remove the protein skimmer. So where would put the protein skimmer instead? Thanks!

[rossgilmore]

Would a skimmer be any better than a fuge in that center chamber?

[michaelk]

Since the tank is topless wouldn’t the snails go out of your tank? (I’m a noob at saltwater tanks)

[chizzychaz]

Hello I am in the uk and looking buy this reef tank
Can you tell me will a al prime hd led light cover this reef tank
Thanks

[MrBeefSquatch]

Where can i get that 3layer media basket it’s not on the list.

[karennation]

I was considering a tank like this but being I have to replace evry single thing then it must be junk! I dont get why it dosnt come with a media basket! I would like to use my carbon and some xtra media for additional beneficial bacteria. I dont get why anyone would want a sock and the add a media basket and a reactor when it coming standard with one would be the answer. you could put your carbon and media in it and not need a reactor!

[mikb]

Why did do you never tell us how much the grand total is????

[hugmenuts]

You should change the link for the eflux accessory pump to a link for the pump kit with controller and hub. @marinedepot

[andrewmays]

How does this have a larger return chamber than the biggest bashea sump 😭😭😭

[eltigre]

It's gonna be around $1, 400 for this set down for dat
