mipster Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 I moved towns recently and couldn't move my aquarium with me so I had to take it all down. I'd like to get one going again at work once I'm all settled in and would like to do a AIO for simplicity. I already have a bunch of equipment I could use and am leaning towards the fusion 20. Could you tell me about what you're running in the back? skimmer? any media? a Picture would be extremely helpful if possible.I have a maxspect razor 120w LED light which would fit perfectly over this aquarium. a small koralia powerhead and a tunze one too, and a hydor ATO system. I want to make it as easy to care for as possible since it's at work. I have a tunze 9004 skimmer but no clue if it will fit in the back or not. Thanks for you help! Link to comment

mipster Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 How do you find the Ghost skimmer? I hear so many mixed reviews on it, it's hard to get a good read. It would be nice to use it Since it was designed to work in the tank but I hear it's pretty awful with mirco bubbles. And does the back have a cover you could peel off so I could cut a hole out to put in a small fuge? Link to comment

mipster Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 And the covering on the back? can you tell if it is removable? Link to comment
sageblade24 Posted May 16, 2015 Author Share Posted May 16, 2015 And the covering on the back? can you tell if it is removable? You can cut the back wall with a razer blade. The IM video for installing the nano fuge light demonstrates this. Link to comment
sageblade24 Posted May 16, 2015 Author Share Posted May 16, 2015 Interested in making same baskets can you tell me how you did it please lol I bought 2 sheets of 1/8 inch acrylic from a local plastics shop. I measured the space in the compartment and also used the designs for the other media baskets. I only have a jigsaw so i double taped the spots I cut. I used the stove to soften the acrylic for the handle and taped off the portion i didn't want to bend. I used a drill to make the holes in the rack pieces which are being held in the basket with scrap pieces of acrylic. Once everything was cut I used solvent to bind everything together.

Rory282 Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Nice looking tank! How are you liking those overflows. They really do ad a couple gallon to the tank. Love the tsb! My favourite fish :-). Link to comment
sageblade24 Posted April 12, 2016 Author Share Posted April 12, 2016 Nice looking tank! How are you liking those overflows. They really do ad a couple gallon to the tank. Love the tsb! My favourite fish :-). My only concern with the overflows is that the plastic clips that hold them to the wall could be longer. To keep the screen flush with the top of the tank and also prevent water from creeping up the clips that hold the screen in place I have to lower the overflows until the clear plastic clips barely hold onto the overflows. This isn't really an issue because the force of the water on the overflow holds them in place but it does concern me slightly that they may release from the clips and potentially crush a coral or two.
