    You can up the heater in any of the chambers as long as you have room for it and water movement around the heater.

    i'm having a major crisis now with my refuge. I paid $85 for it, it's a ecosystem one. I had to put it together and now I can't stop it from leaking. I fill one leak with silicon and then I test it and another leak is there. I don't know what to do. I don't wanna take a $85 loss If I don't have to.

    what happens if I get it together without any leaks but later when I set it up for the first time to my tank. I come home and it's leaking everywhere and my main tank has drained.

    Where is it leaking? Did you have to assemble the whole thing? Are we just talking about the interior partitions/baffles?

    Thats whacked, I would have only gone for on that was a one mold pour or was assembled for that reason. Are you using clamps to hold the pieces together as you silicone them?
