20L - DIY AIO or HOB filter/HOB Skimmer?

[mrBananas]

I recently purchased a 20L during the $1/gal sale because why not. I haven't decided on how I want to run it yet. However, it will most likely it will be more for corals and less for fish. I like idea of an AIO similar tohttp://www.badfishre...n-one-kits.html. I've heard the owner went MIA, so if needed I could always make a similar DIY. My other option would be going the route of a HOB skimmer and/or aquaclear 70 set up as a refugium. What are your thoughts? Any advice is appreciated.

The all in one is a good idea, you can run macro algae in there to help scrub the water. Huge skimmer would also do nicely as a means to scrub the water. I'd not use the filter set up though.
I'd go with the AIO as a first thought and the skimmer as a second.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm leaning towards the AIO setup. I just have to decide between the peninsula version or the center AIO. I'm think the peninsula would work out better.

That one would be your choice, they'd both work rather well.
