Love the AIO insert. I'm following another thread where the guy made a completely 3d printed coast to coast AIO insert for a 40b. I really wish I had the time and patience to learn how to do 3d printing. Maybe someday but for now I don't even have anywhere to put one in addition to not having time to learn how to use it.QT update: progress! Finally printed my aio insert
I designed a very simple and low-profile 2-chamber aio area for this. Not intending to put much equipment in here at all, just a heater, a small return pump, and a basic rim-mount ATO
I had already printed a 3-part lid as well, here it is dry fit:
This tank was most recently used as a planted terrarium and I haven’t cleaned the rest of that up yet, but, it was enough to ensure that everything fits so I’m happy. I’ll need to get some large pipe segments to put in for hides
Fluconazole update:
Yesterday I went over everything in my display tank with the siphon, didn’t take water out just siphoned through one of the filter socks and man so much came off so easily, seems like it’s really working! No pics because the lighting isn’t good for it right now but I’ll take some later today. There’s still some algae but it’s supposed to take 3 weeks so plenty of time left lol
Gear update: once again and as predicted I have already grown tired of squeezing filter socks, so I ordered a Nature Dimensions N-Clear M dual-unit fleece roller setup. I like that it requires no modifications to the sump+plumbing and if two ends up not being enough I can add a third into the third filter sock hole later. I think two will be enough though. Very excited about that.
Glad to hear that the Fluconozole seems to be working.
I was thinking about trying one of the N-Clear fleece rollers because I haven't been able to make the Klir 7 work but that's due more to a design flaw in my AIO than it is the fault of the Klir7. I would have to modify my sock chamber for a N'Clear though because it's 7", I'd need a modified adaptor plate. Decided to go with a more simple solution and got a Nosok which seems to be working great. I'm even using lengths of the Klir fleece as an extra layer of filtration in the Nosok on the inside of the mesh screen that comes with it.
