    So this will probably be a silly question, but could one use the bio filter chamber on the HOB BakPak skimmer as a fuge?:-/

    Many thanks!

    I think that the water would flow through it too fast for that purpose. Additionally, you would hope that most of the "nutrients" that the macro would feed off in the return chamber of the Bakpak would be collected in the skimmer's waste cup, as it should.
