Having lived almost as a nomad the past 4 years with 3 moves and one potentially coming up, I have finally settled on a tank that I can easily setup and take apart. I was able to find this BioCube locally and the previous owner did a lot of the mods already, so I was able to transition straight to setting it up. So here is my 29 gallon BioCube setup:

Drygoods:
Tank: Oceanic 29 gallon BioCube

Lights: MH 150w DE with 20K Radium

Flow: Tunze 6025

Skimmer: Tunze 9002 Skimmer

Filtration: Chemi-Pure Elite

Livestock:

Fish:
2 clowns: 1 Naked clown "Commando" & 1 ORA Percula (no name yet)
2 Black Mollys: 1 Male and 1 Female who were conditioned to SW

Inverts:
2 Astraea
5 Cerith or at least I think I may still have five

Future Improvements:
- 2 part dosing system with a DIY Aqualifter/Timer setup
- Tunze Osmolator, got the box, just need to set it up

Current State:
My skimmer crapped out on me yesterday, so I went to clean the pump today and I accidentally knocked off the glued on magnet. I have to either find a better method of attaching it or reglue the magnet.

Thank you for the comments everybody. I installed the Tunze Osmolator ATO last night so I am pretty much done with making the big modifications. Just need to create a media rack and I should be good to go!

I'll see if I can take a few more pics tonight now that I have a majority of the temporary equipment off the front glass.

The PEs are doing good and spreading! I need to move them around a bit and really get the PE corner in the tank going.

I don't think I saw a name. What are those "just under the Hammer"?

Not really sure if they have a name or not. I got them from Rocko whose tank makes these things grow like weeds!
