Fluval Evo 13.5 Filtration Mods?

[Crested]

Hey guys, as the title states, I'm curious about some filtration modifications for the Fluval 13.5. I know about the InTank media basket for it and everything but as a college student on a budget, I would rather go with a DIY egg crate basket over the $65 one[emoji13] I also plan to do a simple refugium with chaeto algae so I guess I was wondering if the stock filtration with the refugium would be enough for just a couple gobies and a pistol shrimp? If it's not, what do you guys suggest?

I think your plan would work
