It works for the price
| Installation and Operation |
The one I got did not come with the hood so setup was pretty easy. All we had to do was unpack put to gether the glass top remove the filter stuff and clean every thing.

| Performance vs. Expectations |
We paid less than 100.00 dollars for this so we did not expect much and so far no leaks and every thing works but the suface skimmer was missing. The hindge for the glass top seems cheap but it is holing up so far but the thin peice of plastic that slides on to the back to cover the filter section broke when I was trying to pu the cover together. The top does seal it up nice very little evap and we have forced air heat My 75 goes through about 1 gallon a day and we have not had to put water in this after 3 days no noticeable evap and sg is still real close to what it was when we set it up. When you open the lid to feed all the water on the inside of the cover runs down the glass and falls right back into the tank. The return pump seams to be fine I did add a nano power head in the display for future corals Even though there are no fish I put in some brine shrimp to watch for any dead spots and after a few adjust ments to rock and nano power head its good> the food was all cleaned up in a few minutes so I dont think I will be upgrading the return pump. I Used a kessil pendant for light so I did not get the one with a hood so i cant comment on the light that comes with the kit. I feel this is a better looking set up because imho the hood looks cheap on all the brands. There is plenty of room for any thing you want to put in the back. I saw one that had alle the power heads in the back so there was no cords or pumps in the display they just drilled holes in the back and put the out put tube in the holes. Glass is clear but you will get some distrotion from the bow front.

| Value for money |
For under 400.00 with the kessil light I got a pretty good sut up that can grown any corals I might ever want actually just looked at my sales slip 377.26 thats with the light heater and filtration to get it started.

I did have to call about the suface skimmer They were great even though they did not have the skimmer in stock they are sending me a complete set of fitration element that come with it when you buy it. They told me they could send me a skimmer when they got more in but it could take a month before I get it so I took option b. I called my lfs where we got the tank and told him what had happen he said he has some of the skimmers in stock and next time Im in he will give me one for free.

1The setup is so quiet you cant here it run unless you actually put your ear on the tank.2 All in one is nice means no sump so no water on the floor no second tank to clean.3 There is no hob filter or skimmer inside display looks very clean.4 Able to get just the tank with out the hood I could not find this in any other brand.

1 The bow front glass I would like to have flat front glass with corners.
2 Insted of the current water intake make a built in over flow.
3 Plastic peice on glass top neads notches for power cords and made of better material it can be cut with good shears but it will also break if not carefull.

not perfect but good!!
| Installation and Operation |
This tank is very good for the beginner because it comes with everything you need and everything is in the same container. It makes it easier to maintain. No filter or air pump hanging outside.

1. comes with everything you need
2. has surface skimmer
3. the space in the back is pretty roomy if you want to change/add something in it

1. the hood is poorly-constructed, the arms on both side are easy to break if not careful
2. dont understand why they can not have different source of power for the moonlight

great for beginners!!!
| Installation and Operation |
i still own the 20gal version of this tank, i would recommend it to anyone that is starting a brand new tank, or anyone thinking of keeping soft corals or sps. the light on this tank mix really well with its shape and size, and also it will last for a pretty long time.

24g JBJ Nanocube
| General |
Nice starter tank a really good tank for soft corals and Zoa's if you keep the stock lighting- I learned alot on maintaining water parameters and just general reefkeeping - which was helpful when I added a second larger tank. My Nano cube has been running for 4 years now |
| Liked about it |
Managable size not to large/small - For me it was a good starter reef - I like the look and the all in one features
|
| Didn't like |
the lighting
I first retro fitted 2 more 36w PC's into my hood and eventually just removed the hood and got a MH Pendant to hang from the ceiling
