Hi everybody,
My AIO insert from FijiCube just arrived. It looks great but, as I knew from the dimensions posted on their website, there is roughly a half inch gap between one side of the insert and the wall of my tank. They include magnets and clams so I can have the insert attached “temporarily” which would allow me to take it out so I could clean that gap, but, I think this would also mean that sand gets trapped under the insert and I’m not sure how easy it would be to remove when all is said and done. The other option is to silicone it in place which would keep sand out from under it but I’m just imagining that half inch gap becoming packed with algae and maybe Aiptasia should I ever get any in my tank and I have no idea how I would clean it out.
Thoughts on what I should do?
