I'm going to look around for quotes on the Oceanic stand.

My 30 cube, is only tempered on the bottom, big sticker says so. i have drilled 3 holes in the back with no problem. used a dremmel

on the stand. the oceanic is good if you dont use a sump. If you use a sump you either have to get a custom(200-300) or put it outside the stand. very small about 16x17. mine is a 20 tall next to my cube, stand is storage and power.

Froggie, looks good.

Kris's stand is just fine, J. Not bad for his first project!

it can be drilled w/ no problem, just not the bottom. IMO drill it, dont waste ur time w/ overflows.

you should also check out nano-reefs.com (i'm sure u have) and search from 30g cube, check out Oogies thread, amazing 30g cube.

Yeah, I remember the thread in reefcentral that oceanic cube is only tempered on the bottom glass and it said so on the tank with big sticker. And I've seen plenty of 30G cube tank drilled on the back and never had any problem. Drill that tank bro. And goodluck.

I am selling 20" 150W Sunpod fixture with extra bulb. It will fit nicely on your tank bro.

I was browsing through Nano-reef and I saw the 30g cubes tanks.
They all look so boring! No offense.

Same design. Same this and that.
I think people spend soo much time on the exterior of the tank (cabinets, hood, plumbing) but the aquascaping is soooooo unoriginal.
Sorry if I offended anyone, but those 30g cubes on nano-reef.com are bland.
Maybe its just me, but I won't spend most of my day staring at my tank furniture.

yuP, kRisen stand is perFect for ya

drunktank · 08-22-2006, 05:19 PM

30g cube is pretty small, very hard to aquascape, but i was refering u to those threads for drilling info and positions. Most of the cubes on that site suck, but thats always why i said look at oogies, b/c his tank is one of the best

Froggie · 08-22-2006, 05:19 PM

Not my point Ink...lol
I'm just saying people should spend as much time aquascaping as designing their furniture.
