Good feedback so far.

Shipped two to Dubai already, those guys don't mess around and Charterhouse Aquatics already has a big order planned for our UK friends.

I just recieved mine. Fits great. My Plan is to run chemipure elite in the bottom champer, purigan and rowaphos in the next and then Chaeto in the top (next to the pad). Wondering folks thoughts on this? This same strategy has been working great in my biocube for over a year. For the Chaeto, I plan to either use a submersible light or a jbj nanoglo if I can remove the paint from the back.

On the 130/130D I have always seen it tied & recommended to be for flow, on my RSM 250 though, I just have mine (two 11.74 oz bags of cpe & one 100 ml bag of Purigen) sitting on the shelves & the flow seems to be fine for me.

In the 130/130D I would highly recommend it, in the RSM 250, it's a good question - being it's new, what is everyone else doing & how is it working for you?

You may not have to tie it on the RSM250. The flow is bottom up vs on the 130, and well every other AIO it is top down.

Just don't want to block all the holes which would cut down on flow. But since it is bottom up you may not even notice that especially with the dual pumps. Enjoy the basket oakleyx

So put it in today and I must say it fits like a glove. Top-off (I do it manually) is now accurately measurable thanks to the media being held in place! Now to figure out what I want to run in each section. Suggestions? Currently doing chemipure elite, the ceramic media. What else?

I just put mine in last night. I agree, it fits great. I have to say, the flow is soo much better.

My filter floss is really thin, so I put the black filter floss bracket (empty) to keep the the filter floss snug.

StevieT, great product!

I have just received my media rack after only a week all the way to Oz. Extremely well packaged and a quality piece of kit. I'll be installing it tomorrow and was wondering do I put CPE on the bottom and Purigen on the middle shelf? Any other suggestions?

Thanks heaps Stevie :).

Congrats Leigh - one week 1/2 way around the world is pretty good, here in the US 1st class mail can take up to 3 days :)

I run one cpe on the bottom rack & in middle another cpe & a 100 ml bag of Purigen
