    Just wondering what are the most common mods for a nano cube 28?

    I have a media basket from Media Baskets.
    Planning on replacing the CF bulb with Boost leds.
    Going to put in 2 Maxi Jet 1200 for returns running on stock wave maker.

    I thought about taking out the false wall and drilling an overflow and return, but that would defeat the purpose of AIO.

    What other mods are there for a nano cube? Skimmer maybe?

    For the skimmer I recommend the Tunze 9002, you can get the Intank collection cup so the cup does not hit the lid when you open the tank.

    I run chemipure elite and purigen in the media basket.

    I was looking at Eshop's HOB 100gph for the skimmer. Any input on either the Tunze or Eshop? Also, where would it go? In one of the return chambers?
