Hello

Hi, I have come to this site for over a year now looking for answers and finally joined today. I started out a year ago this April. Literally at petco and someone walk up to me from a van (no candy (coral) though) she ask me if I liked fish and gave me a bucket with live rock and two clownfish in it also a box of salt among other things. All for free! It was crazy so thats how I got started. They are still alive and healthy thanks to my anxiety of wanting them not to suffer because of my ignorance. So here I am finally upgrading to a 20 gallon fancy with the filter all in one inside instead of a hang on the back filter. I don't know where or what to put in the back part so I'm here for help. Sorry so long. I'm not good at giving small details.

Thank you, I was looking for that section! I bought a 20 gallon peninsula rimless aio tank and its so beautiful and fancy for me that I'm at a loss.

Thank you! Its a 20 gallon peninsula rimless aio tank. I don't know where what goes in the back part or what the sock is for? I want to get chaeto for the middle part. Where do I put the heater? A lot of questions I have!

Nice tank. The sock area is where the water should overflow in. I’m looking at similar tanks for my wife’s office.

Welcome to the R2R family! You should start a build thread in the “member tanks” forum. It’s a great way to track your progress

Welcome to R2R! I have that exact tank, can you tell me what equipment you have now besides the filter sock, which looks like it’s in the right place:)
