whats up guys so as subject says this is my first cube.

500x500x500 .

so i got abit bored of my boyu (which is for sale by the way) and was letting it run doing usual maintenance ect but just lost abit of interest .

so the cube i have pretty much no plan and i am winging it as i go , its been running for around maybe a month now, the tank was running when i took it off the previous owner so i did not worry to cycle i did howver wait for around 2 weeks before moving my live stock over which i also did over a few days as i didn't want to just dump a massive load on the tank

2 x clowns
1 x midas blenny
1 x convict ( his size is still ok for now )
1 x red scarlet hermit
1 x turbo snail
1 x cleaner shrimp

i do want to add 2 or 3 more fish

i currently have 2 x 60CM zetlight space bars over the tank they working ok for now but i want to move my Radion over still.

small photo dump below what are your guys thoughts ? also this is my first tank with a sump ever also my second reef tank i have ever had
