My 14 Gallon Cubicle Cube

[markl]

So I got another tank. Its Biocube 14 for my cubicle at work. .I work in a cubicle world from 10-6 and needed a stress relief. For the past 3 weeks during lunch ive been climbing on other people's desk and unscrewing the bulbs in the ceiling to dim the light around my desk. No one in the office noticed how every few day another bulb would blow.:confused2: Well today it got real blue real quick while setting up the tank and testing the light.

Tank - Biocube 14g topless
Light -viper 70w Ushio 20 k may be going led
chamber one stealth 50 w heater remove false floor
chamber 2 lr rubble remove false floor. im going to make or buy a media rack.
chamber 3 maxi jet 900 .I have but need to install an ato from autotopoff.com
Mesh screen lid to keep the fish in.


Power head-Koralia nano 425.
Bleached and cured Live rock maybe 15 lbs
Sand -CaribSea Hawaiian black sand.



Corals going in from my main tank to start is.
nuclear green zoas
Tub blue zoas

Should have seen the rc trials track I had made out of card board. I had the whole office stop by wondering what I was up to.Something kind of like this

But mine went up 4 levels high and circled the whole cubicle. The space is 6ft by 8ft cubicle .I find many ways to keep my self busy.Lots of tape and fedex boxes go a long way.

Fun! I use to have an office tank too...though, that was when I worked at a place that would allow it....sigh... Anyways, lots of fun and definitely a distraction, lol. I sure do miss my tank, was prolly one of the best tanks I owned, lol.
