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

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 I created a reef tank complete with live rock an anemone clownfish 3 snails 5 hermit crabs a yellow watchman goby pistol shrimp fighting conch polyps 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 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 quietThe tank is easy to maintain This is great for beginners as well as experts who don t 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 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 don t respond however your local fish store aquarium center probably has both lights in stock Mine did I still say that this is a great tank for beginners or for those who don t 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 it s name 1 Japanese pistol shrimp and 1 Sand Sifter Starfish If you buy hermit crabs make sure they are of the same size or else you ll have a crab war lol 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 1 sand snail and a peppermint shrimp They are in the tank with the Sea Horses to keep the tank clean It s good to have a clean team in your tank but don t get a lot of them or they will turn on each other
