Hi everyone

I am very new to this so please be patient with me. I have a 29 gallon oceanic biocube which has a little cartridge filter in the 3rd back chamber. I took it out and have a bag of chemipure. I need to know where the best place to put it in this tank configuration. The compartment where my bioballs WERE is empty now as I use my live rock for that with great success. I have lots of soft coral and frogspawn and trumpet coral along with 2 clown fish, a pajama cardinal and a small hippa tang. All are going great and my water parameters have always been good other than nitrate sometimes at 5-10. Any suggestions????

I dont' think it really matters, as long as there is adequate flow where the bad is. You can put it in with the lr or where the filter cartiridge was, I really don't think it matters as long as there is adequate flow

You can put it in the empty compartment.

I have the smaller version the 14G. We filled the first chamber with small pieces of LR the second chamber has a bag of carbon and LR with a little bit of filter floss. and the third is just the pump.

I'm going to day it before someone else does and I'm sure you've heard it before. That tiny hippo tang will out grow your tank very quickly, be prepared.
