For my first try at having a salt water tank, I figure to buy a small tank. This tank is perfect for a apartment/co-op or for homes with not an abundance of space (for a tank). Ultimatly, its a great tank for beginners. I created a reef tank complete with live rock, an anemone, clownfish, 3 snails, 5 hermit crabs, a yellow watchman goby, pistol shrimp (has a symbiotic relationship with the goby), fighting conch, and a sand sifter starfish. On the top of the tank, it comes with a white light and a violet light. When the violet light is on, there is a fan that circulates to prevent the light from heating the tank water. I haven;t had any issue with fish jumping into the filter or pump area. Make sure the wires/plugs are not sitting on the tank hood. There are openings on the side that allow the plugs/wires to go through. This tank has the filter built in on the back. I replaced the carbon that the tank came with, with filter pads. In the middle compartment, I took out the bio-balls and replaced it with crushed rock and sand. This keeps the tank filtered and allows the bacteria (good) to flourish. The current is very strong and you can adjust it. The filter/current/air pump is very quiet. There is no need for a separate air pump. The tank is easy to maintain. This is great for beginners as well as experts who dont have the time to maintain a rather large tank. The downside is that if you plan on buying large fish; this tank is too small. When I bought this tank, the stand came with it at a much lower price. The stand is nice. The cabinet opens to reveal nice space inside to hide all your fish supplies. There is enough room, I keep my parakeet food in their too. No, I havent accidently fed my fish parakeet food *One small note* If you have a Pistol Shrimp in this tank, keep an eye on the amount of sand it bulldozes. On the bottom right side of the tank, there is a vent for the filter. If the pistol shrimp covers it up, the filter might spit out the sand and hurt the anemones in the tank. I caught it in time! My clownfish was giving me the look of, save him, save him, save him!!!! *Less than a year after I bought this tank. the blue light died. Then the fans near the white light began to make noise (not loud, but you can hear it). Getting a hold of the company is not recommend, they dont respond; however, your local fish store/aquarium center probably has both lights in stock as well as replacement fans. Mine did! <-Update on the fans 10/4/10 The fan noise stopped. No replacing was needed. It just might be this model. Ive checked the fans and they were working properly. I still say that this is a great tank for beginners or for those who dont want a huge tank to take care of. You can have enough rocks and living things in it to make you happy. In my tank, I have: 1 Yellow Watchman Goby, 1 Ocellaris Clownfish (tank raised), 1 Sebae Anemone (the clownfish snuggles and lives in it), 5 Hermit crabs, 1 snail, 1 under gravel snail ( I forget its name), 1 Japanese pistol shrimp, and 1 Sand Sifter Starfish. If you buy hermit crabs, make sure they are of the same size (or slightly smaller) or else youll have a crab war. If you have a pistol shrimp, you cannot put other shrimp in the tank (for example: cleaning, peppermint or fire shrimp). I also have a 10 gallon (regular, not biocube) tank which has my 2 Sea Horses (have them since February 10), 1 sand snail, and a peppermint shrimp. They are in the tank with the Sea Horses to keep the tank clean Its good to have a clean team in your tank but dont get a lot of them or they will turn on each other.
