1. Easiest way is to remove the bio balls and convert the back chambers by cleaning off the back glass and letting a light shine through it.
2. Cut the hood to accept a HOB over flow
3. Drill the tank.

I just read a post over on another forum where a CPR Aquafuge was used with the BC29. It looks like a fairly easy mod.

Here is the link http://www.reefsanctuary.com/forums/nano-reefs/14853-skimmer-refugium-mods.html

I dont have a pic right now, but I just split the flow off the return pump to go up to a dyi acrylic refugium 14X4X12 that is hung like a picture on the wall behind the tank. A return frim the refugium goes back into the main tank via a hose ending in one of those fan type fittings that came with the tank. It has about 1;5" sand and 4" liverock rubble. I picked up a cheap incandescent canopy and put a 10w 6500 compact flou light. So far it has worked great, growing 3 types of plants and lots of pods.

It's not to hard to scrape the black paint off the back and add a box and a light in chamber 2 I have done it in my 14 gallon I will try and have some pic's up in a few days. Good Luck
