SLIP.7 setup for chaeto only (saltwater), overflow fed.

Using the overflow from a nano display, to feed into the top of the SLIP.7 which slips down into the back of nano AIO back compartment sumps.

Not shown is the GEM5 black shade screen inside.

Dimensions:

9 inches tall (23 cm)
3 1/2 inches wide (9 cm)
1 3/4 inches thick (4.5 cm)

Also, a small block of black filter foam could be added at the botton to catch any chaeto particles, and to block all remaining light out of the bottom.

Use a small water pump to feed into the bottom of the SLIP.7 which then slips down into the back of nano AIO back compartment sumps.

Dimensions:
9 inches tall (23 cm)
3 1/2 inches wide (9 cm)
1 3/4 inches thick (4.5 cm)

Not shown is the GEM5 black shade screen inside.

SLIP.7 setup for chaeto with bubbles, bottom fed





Neat trick for saltwater: Grow chaeto first, then turn on air bubbles to grow slime, GHA, or cyano on the chaeto, then harvest all of it together.

Use a small water pump and air pump for the bottom of the SLIP.7 which then slips down into the back of nano AIO back compartment sumps.

The SLIP.7 is the world's first combo scrubber: It's a chaeto reactor, and a waterfall algae scrubber, and a UAS® upflow algae scrubber® built into one. It slips into the back of almost all nano aquarium back compartments
