Would an aquaclear fuge make a difference?

[Fishyj]

I have a 20 gallon tank that I will be switching over to and was wondering if the aquaclear fuge mod would really benefit this tank? I do own the filter already and also the intank mod for it. I can set it up to surface skim and I would not need to drill the tank and install a sump. I plan on doing a 5 gallon water change a week on this tank. Any thoughts on this?

My first sw tank was a 20 tall and I had an aquaclear 50 that I modified as a fuge. It grew cheato and pods like crazy and gave me a place to put poly bags filled with carbon as needed. I say if you have it on hand already, go for it

yes, turning your hob filter can be beneficial. the intake stuff isn’t even required.
