Coralife Smart Biocube Jr Reviews?

[nam2212]

I have been out of the hobby for about 10 years now. Looking at setting up an AIO now that my daughter has expressed some interest. I have seen a couple of videos online but no real feedback on this tank. Anyone have one? Pros? Cons? I am looking to keep evaporation low and be able to keep an anemone, LPS, softies and potentially some easier SPS.

I was also intrigued by the new Smart line - I recently ordered from Petco on their sale recently and got it for ~$180. I’ll let you know when I set it up my thoughts! I’m not 100% sure the included LED’s could support SPS, but maybe.

I saw that price the other day too. Let me know how it goes. Thanks

I just got one and set it up for my son. I’m the same, been out of the reef game for 10+ years. I just posted my setup thread

I'm also intrigued by the new Smart line but I'm wondering if it will be available in London in 2025??? And what the current price is including accessories.

Welcome back! AIO tanks are great for low evaporation and easy maintenance.

Pros: Compact and efficient.

Cons: Limited space and potential for parameter fluctuations.

With good lighting and stable conditions, you can keep an anemone, LPS, and softies. Enjoy the hobby with your daughter!

What specific features should I look for in an AIO tank to ensure it meets the needs of both anemones and various coral types?

Nice to see so many of us coming back to the hobby after so many years. I been out 10+ years. Sort of. Always kept a 29 biocube (rimless) running. Just really neglected. Decided to thoroughly clean it a few weeks ago and was amazed at how good it looked. Had a deep blue 75 rimless just sitting in my basement. Got the green light to set it up. So I did. And not familiar with the new biocubes. But always been a fan of their design. The curved glass. The aio compartments. I just decided to take the cover off and chop the plastic rim off. Back when rimless was becoming a thing. I also like nuvo’s too.
