Biocube 29, InTank products and Tunze 9001 - will it all fit?

[Coelli]

Has anyone successfully fit the Tunze 9001 into chamber 1 on an Oceanic Biocube 29? False floor in #1 has already been removed. I have the Media and Fuge baskets on the way, but everything I've seen so far about using the Tunze 9001 in a BC29 has it where the Fuge basket would go. Thanks!

It would have to be in the 2nd chamber. Only the hydor nano slimskimz can fit in the 1st chamber.

Thanks for the tip on the Hydor. Just for posterity, InTank confirmed that the Tunze 9001 and Fuge Basket are incompatible.

They are right, bc the fuge basket usually sits on the 2nd chamber. So it's either fuge or skimmer...tunze9002, not tunze9001 btw...

No, I did mean the Tunze 9001. I was hoping to be able to get both in there.

Oh my bad, it must be new..it's odd that the model # went backward instead of progression forward...yeah it doesn't look like it'll fit, bc it's the same width as 9002 with exception to the magnets.

Yeah, it doesn't need the separate InTank cup, you can use it straight out of the box with the stock cup. I'll have to decide if it's more important to me than the fuge, or go with a different skimmer like that Hydor.

The media basket would have to be apart of any your option..
