Love the tank. Wave maker is great, lights are bright, chiller is quiet, set up a breeze. I think I may add an additional in tank power head and a protien skimmer. Much more bang for the buck compared to the Oceanic Bio Cube! Just bought 28 gal nano cube w/ new quad 105 watt pc a week ago. Love the tank.

I don't have a fuge on this nano cube. A hang on would only work on the back, so you'd need plenty of room behind the tank. You could plumb a refugium inline though by putting the pump/powerhead and return flow in one of the back compartments. The chiller makes very little noise (to me anyway) and I'm sitting about 2 - 3 feet away from it as I type this. It sounds like a small fridge kicking on. Yes it's louder than the 4 fans in the nano cube's hood. I can't hear those at all, maybe I need my hearing checked??? Lol. Mike Thanks. I don’t have a fuge on this nano cube.

I have this nano and want to setup a refuge but haven't really found or created a design I like. If you decide to set up a refug on the nano only, I will be looking forward to seeing your design. Also, how much noise does the chiller make? Is it louder than the 4 fans in the hood? I agree with the temp. swing being abit much but also don't really care to wreck the serenity with more noise.

About the only drawback is when coralline algae grows in the corners of the cube. It gets kind of difficult to scrape that stuff away carefully when it gets in the corners.

It's nice to hear that someone has bought one and is happy with it. We're going to put in our order soon.
