Dumbfk88 Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Hey guys, doing the fuge mod on my AC110 and im wondering if I should put the second left over sidewall inside to make a second chamber? I plan on stuffing some foam right along the inlet to catch all the bigger particles but then i wasnt fully sure. Should i make this a smaller compartment to house a heater or other various items or would this just reduce flow and cause too much back pressure? Pictures to follow Link to comment

Sunstar Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 I had to look at my AC110 that I am currently not using. I didn't do my chamber all the way up, but part way up. I would usually stick floss in it. It basically is in teh same position just cut off above the square holes. so +1 to adding it. I will suggest making a sort of box around the intake pipe to create an overflow. I found it irksome tohave the AC110 grinding away as sand got into the impeller. I did such an overflow in my 2.5g pico and it worked quite well. Link to comment
Dumbfk88 Posted December 10, 2015 Author Share Posted December 10, 2015 I decided against adding the second chamber, and just housed the heater in the tank. Figured I could place a bag of carbon by the intake along with a thick pad on the wall before the water goes into the chamber where I plan to grow the cheato. Flow seems great for far, will update when I add the cheato and actually have fish in the tank. Link to comment
