Red Sea 130D AIO

[trio91]

it came fully assembled, so i literally just slid the thing in and that was all she wrote

 

[trio91]

i also installed an In-Tank media basket once i removed the old skimmer. this is exactly how i have this thing mounted in my rear chamber with the identical "in-tank" basket

 

[trio91]

for media i am using chemi-pure blue, seachem matrix, and purigen. currently i am in the process of dialing it down a bit with the chemi-pure and going to go with the elite instead. i also have a black, coarse filter sponge and well as the white, fine filter floss pad in there

 

[trio91]

sand, rock and water went into the tank

I used some aragonite sand

live rock went into the tank
