Hey everyone - I am eyeing up the 60 g breeder for my display tank and want to put in an AIO kit to give a bit cleaner of a look than HOB would provide. I really like the ones from fiji cube (https://www.fijicube.com/products/in-sump-40-gallon-breeder ) but they dont make a 60 g version. Do you think the 40 would work?

I am worried about the height, and it being undersized. The height of the 40 is 17" and the height of the 60 is only 16 inches, but the AIO kit says it is only 15.5" - so I think that will be okay?

I know Tenecor sells a 60 gal kit, but I am a bit uneasy about the flat packed - assemble it all yourself approach.

Did you find out any info on the 40 kit working on the 60? I'm looking into the 60 currently as Petco has these for 50% off until July 4.
