Hey everyone,
I was looking into doing an upgrade from my Fluval Evo 13.5, and I really like the Evo’s aio setup not dealing with all the sump filtration underneath. I was looking at flex tanks, biocubes, etc., and then wondered how hard it might be to upgrade the tank on my own in a manageable, affordable way (of course, “affordable” and “reef” hardly go hand-in-hand lol). Would the Seachem Tidal Hang on Back filter, combined with a wavemaker and lighting system, be sufficient enough to create a reef, or would I be better off sticking with sumps and/or buying one of the pre-built aios I’ve been looking into?
