28 Gallon JBJ Nano Cube HQI

28 Gallon JBJ Nano Cube HQI

For those who want a Nano Cube that is more powerful and suited to the more challenging aspects of reefing, there is the JBJ Nano Cube HQI. The Nano Cube HQI is a step up from JBJ's 24 Gallon Nano Cube Deluxe, not only in size but also in features and capabilities.

Besides being 28 gallons in size and having the traditional Nano Cube panoramic curved-glass aquarium glass, the JBJ Nano Cube HQI also comes with several advanced features such as a powerful and efficient metal halide lighting system, a highly optimized filtration and skimming system, and much more.

Under the hood you'll find a 150 watt 14000°K HQI metal halide lighting system with integrated cooling fans. This lighting is more than strong enough to support light-hungry corals such as SPS and LPS, photosynthetic clams, and anemones. Also integrated is a Nite-Vu nocturnal LED lighting system with a separate power cord so you can view your aquarium at night in tranquil moonlight and encourage nocturnal moonlight behavior such as spawning.

The Nano Cube HQI's innovative filtration system makes it easy to keep your aquarium clean and crystal clear. An integrated 3-stage filtration system with removable media basket provides the three necessary types of filtration necessary for a healthy aquarium--mechanical, chemical, and biological. Also included is a counter-current protein skimmer with air pump, so dissolved organic materials and wastes are removed quickly and efficiently.

And, two 266 gph Accela powerheads, powered by the included alternating wavemaker, provide a total of 532 gallons per hour water circulation so your aquarium's water is directed where it needs to be most. With the alternating wavemaker you can create simulated oceanic currents right in your aquarium.

The 28 Gallon JBJ Nano Cube HQI comes with many other features that have never before been seen in a Nano Cube package. And, the best part is, they are all wrapped up in an appealing, compact system. There is almost no additional equipment to add that will stick out and steal away from the naturalness of your reef aquarium. That's one of my most favorite parts of Nano Cube aquariums--they not only make it extremely easy to get a nano aquarium going, they also make it possible to have the most natural-looking mini-reef possible.
