Heu guys, I have a quick question. I bought a uv sterilizer so i now need more space for chambers, can I put my biological media and my chemical media in the same chamber under my filter sock first chamber? currently i have a chamber tower on the first chamber on the right side but i wanted to put my filter sock back on the right side and have my bio media and chemical media under it?

You can, but I’d watch out for the chemical media clogging up the flow.

I tried something similar once with a bag of chemipure in my IM15. Eventually a portion of the bag got sucked under the baffle, compacted, and inhibited flow. I went back to the media tower. You might have better luck though 👍

Thanks for the info, do you think I can put my media tower into the second chamber and filter sock in the first, or do they counteract

If it fits I don’t see why not. The chemical and biological filtration aren’t mechanical like the sock so they don’t counteract.

Thanks, I’ll try it out 👍 got to save space somehow lol
