I have my helio titanium heater under two media bags in my AIO aquarium. Is this alright? Or should I put it vertically against my pump in the other chamber?

Well you don't want your heater to create bad hot spots for the tank. Is there a place with better flow for it?
 
I agree you want good flow at the heater.

What sort of media? Maybe you don't need it at all.
 
It is a pretty small AIO so the only other spot is vertically in the return chamber. The media is just some maxspect ceramic media. I have deemed it pretty necessary since the tank is just a small frag system so no rocks or sand in the display. Thank you guys for responding! I really appreciate it.
