28G Nano Cube CF-QUAD, The Ultimate Reef Series Biotope!

JBJ introduces the newest addition to the 28G family of reef biotopes. The new CF-Quad is equipped with an integrated 105 Watt Compact Fluorescent Quad Lamp and state of the art Electronic Ballast for high intensity light output with low energy consumption. The 28G CF-QUAD definitely is the most value packed all-in-one in its class and price level. It offers almost 50% more light output than competing CF brands, 2 Powerheads, an Ocean Pulse Duo Wavemaker, removable transparent filter basket (for easy Refugium conversions), designated Heater column, designated Protein Skimmer column (sold separately), 2 Cooling Fans, and 4 Nite-Vu LED’s with their own power supply.

The revolutionary CF-QUAD boasts 105 watts of high intensity daylight light output with our 10K/7100K combo compact fluorescent lamp. It utilizes a very compact size while delivering MEGA lumens to your corals. The quick-disconnect harness makes changing the lamp quick & easy. Nite-Vu LED’s are strategically placed on all four corners to even distribute moonlight throughout the aquarium. All LED’s are pre-wired individually for easy replacement, consume less than 1 watt of power, but are strong enough to illuminate nocturnal behaviors. read more....

In Tank Refugium

Posted by gerard on December 4, 2008 under Aquarium Info | 2 Comments to Read

I have a 29gallon Biocube and I was thining about putting a small refugium in my display tank.  Reason being that I want to try and lower my nitrates using some Chaeto.  If i put a refugium in one of the back compartments I have to light it and figure out a way to do that.  I have read of others using a soap dish in their main tank with a clump of chaeto in it.  Then you just light it with your main lights on the tank.  Has anyone done that with success?  Any ideas would be great.
