Just recieved my media basket today and was wondering what everyone has in each part of theres
on advice from my local fish store i have blue sponge in bottom then i have Blue Life CLEAR Fx PRO 450m
then top chamber i have cheato with D-D NANO-GLO Refugium LED and finally i have JBL Symec Filterwool
if anyone has any suggestions or improvements i would appreciate it

I run a square of white/blue floss, a 100 ml bag of Purigen and two bags of the 11.74 ounces of Chemi Pure Elite

 

[mjs1981]

So do you think what I'm running is good enough?

 

[nanoreefing4fun]

I am not similar with the Blue Life Clear FX Pro, I read about it just now, but have never used it...

CPE is a high grade carbon & GFO (Granular Ferric Oxide) - controls phosphates & here a bit about Purigen - controls ammonia, nitrites and nitrates Seachem. Purigen

See what other members think...

I guess the real proof is how the tank is doing though

I run the same as Glenn and it seems to be doing the job. Glenn...do you run your floss in the basket itself or in the original RSM floss holder?

 

[nanoreefing4fun]

I have started doing both... though I am not sure I need too... I run the stock fine filter up like an inch

 

[mjs1981]

Most use the white/blue

inTank Poly Filter Floss

Aquarium Mechanical Filtration Media: Blue Bonded Filter Pads

where could i get the same filter sponge from in the UK?

 

[nanoreefing4fun]

2m AQUARIUM POND FILTER MEDIA WOOL FLOSS ROLL 12-15mm | eBay

I believe this is similar ... several members of the club from the UK, should be able to advise too

Just got my media basket in. It looks great, a very well made product. I forgot to order the In tank Poly Filter floss. Is this something that can be purchased at most local fish stores. Or should I place my order through InTank?

Since the name has the word Poly in it, is it the same as the PolyPads that help remove traces of any copper that you may have in your system?

Congrats in the new media rack ! The white/blue fine filter material can be found at many lfs

 

[dotcommer]

Thanks for such a quick reply. I just added one more question above.

 

[nanoreefing4fun]

I thought I'd post up how I run my InTank Media Basket for those of you who are interested.

From top to bottom you got...

Filter pad > Chaeto > CPE (Chemi-Pure Elite 11oz) > Seachem Purigen > CPE (Chemi-Pure Elite 11oz)

and from the top it looks like this...

Hope this is helps some to you....
