Not pretty but it functions. And i think it still beats the aquaclear.

The wall came from a busted biocube15.

Tank will have fish this weekend :-)

Drop it in and ready to go. The filter is about half the size of the tank.

Its a little short so ill need to prop it up a bit

Havnt tried running it since the silicone just dried today. Should work tho :-)

nothing new :\ few problems that need to be worked on. HELP?

 

the AIO filter was moving pretty crazy like when i placed it in the tank. rocking back and forth and was leaning back (almost shot water all over the room) - im thinking of adding a bigger base and having live rock keep it from wiggiling.??? sloppy i know. the filter should have been glued to the tank but 2 late now

 

1) my pump is maybe too strong? i used the stock biocube 29 pump? thoughts? (using a biocube 15 back)

 

2) the hose from the pump leading to the bulk head is pinched. is there a diffrent type of tubing i should use? ive cut diffrent lenghts and the same pinching effect. the pump weighs down the tube and ye.....

 

ill probably be sealing the first chamber after i find a new pump if i need one/replace tubing so the water wont shoot all over the place if it happens to get disconnected. i live in a condo and have families that live below me so im taking every percausion .

 

id appreciate any feedback thanks

Added fish and the aquaclear70.

Much happier after adding the aquaclear - got rid of all of the scummy junk on the top.

Super happy with this tank!
