Coralife 32 Biocube LED mod

I didn't think to document this until it was already done. I used a variable speed moto-tool to cut a hole in the lid so that I could install an Aquatic Life Mini skimmer. I made it just large enough so that I could open and close the lid without interference.

I placed a board over the tank with a large towel over the board covering the back very well to keep out any plastic particles. It took about an hour because I wanted the hole just right, I'm sure the fish didn't appreciate the commotion but they came out to eat an hour later.

Nice clean job Steve. One of the primary reasons we swapped out our biocube was to be able to run a skimmer. No matter what I did I couldn't get one that fit in the tank to actually skim sufficiently.
