I have a 14g Biocube that is usually in my fiance's elementary classroom, but during the summer it comes home. There is a clown, royal gramma, purple firefish, red starfish, 2 sexy shrimp, crabs and snails. The bottom pic is a really cool mushroom I picked up at the LFS.

I also wanted to share some recent pics of my 115g DT that is fishless due to a ich. I'm just going to let the parasite run through it's life cycle without anything to host. I like that my sand sifting star likes to climb the glass for me to get really nice pics (be sure to click on it for a larger version).

    Thanks Hat! I've heard a couple of different things as to how long I should leave the tank fishless, from 1 month to 2 months. I'm probably not going to get any fish until after the wedding at the end of July. That should leave any doubt to rest since I started this a couple of weeks ago.

    Yeah, I think Melev told me when I had the ich to go 6 to 8 weeks. I was going to go for the 8 weeks to make sure. I had an expensive loss too! I was waiting to the max to make sure it was gone.

    I LOVE the mouths on the fungia!! and that mushroom is fantastic. oh and the CLAM i love clams. I wish my LFS would get things in this nice, but if he did he would just kill them.

    Thanks! I've had that plate for a LONG time. It's about the size of a moon pie lol! I picked out that clam for it's lighter color and I actually traded it for a redsea wavemaker. I've never seen mushrooms like that but I want more!

    hey, at the time, did you just have the stock lighting on that biocube? or did you change from power compacts?
