What mods for BC29?

[smketyr]

The title says it all.

What basic mods and can anyone point me to a thread on this? I just got a BC 29. I will be swapping out the stock pump for a Maxi 1200 and a hydor FLO. What else needs to be done.

Thanks
Tom

In my 14 gallon I made a fuge in chamber 2. I took a razor and scraped the paint off the back got a electrical box and light from Loews and put micro algae in it nitrates have stayed at 0. Good Luck

chamber 1 - i knocked out the false floor and put my heater in there. i left chemi pure rigged up for the carbon bag

chamber 2 - i took out bio balls and made a refugium w rubble Live rock and cheata. have a 24w light on reverse cycle

chamber 3 - took out sponge and have skimmer pump in it and return from skimmer going back to the refugium. i left my stock pump for the return pump as it is not much less flow but a lot less heat than the mj
for extra flow i put a tunze nanostream in the main tank opposite side of the return pump. also i dont use the level indicator on the left hand side for any refrence. that is only to be used if u r still using the bio balls i just fill mine up until the 2nd chamber stays full.
thats just what i did though.
