I don't have a media rack. I have a Tunze 9001 skimmer in the 2nd chamber on the wall closest to the first chamber. I had to move my skimmer there because of the AI Prime light mount. If I had the light on the side of the tab towards the first chamber, the skimmer won't fit (hit the light bracket).
Anyhows, I noticed there's a sponge between the 2nd and 3rd chamber (the return chamber). Do I need that? I just rinsed it out, and I've been fighting hard to keep nitrates under 10, and i'm wondering if that was the culprit. If I need it, so be it. I have read that people have removed it, but they have a media basket/rack though.
