Fiji Cube AIO box

[swoons]

I'm planning out what I will be putting in the back of this aio box. I'm having trouble however actually deciding what to do. Should I look to get a skimmer for the middle of the box?

It doesn’t work like you think it will. Its not an exact fit. I have one for a 20gal long. Made it work but it was a pain.

Gotcha. In a 40 i would definitely do a skimmer. Anything smaller is pointless imo.

Where would I put my filter media if i run the skimmer in the middle?

Mine only has two chambers but i have media in chamber one (below filter sock) (which imo is way to long. No shorter ones i know about) and the rest is sitting with the heater and pump in chamber two.

I also add a little filter floss on top of the sock to.

So you just dropped the media bags in the chambers? Or did you have a media rack?

Yes just drop in marine pure balls. No media tray fits that i know of. Unless you buy theres.
