Aquatop Recife 40 AIO Filter Basket

Hello!

New to reefing and picked myself up a Aquatop Recife 40 AIO. Upon doing some research I realized people recommend ditching the included sponge filter and replacing it with Filter floss and some Matrix or Chemipure Blue. Should be easy right? just head on over to InTankAquatics and....oh wait they don't have one.

Well until anything changes i'm going to make my own. I figure it will be similar to what intank offers.

I figure it will include 3 media trays and will be made out of acrylic and will be sourced out and laser cut.

Would Aquatop owners be interested in a media basket?

Depending on cost of materials I figure between $30-$50.

or if theres another option out there let me know :)

Yes I am still making them for the Aquatop 40. However im in the middle of creating a new version so will start selling them again when its finished. check out my other thread for more information

 
I am just waiting for the next round of parts to be cut out, then assembly and shipping. You can send me a PM if you have any specific questions.

You also can send me the $60 via PayPal goods and services and I will update you when it ships :)

I have them in design right now. We had to make some adjustments to the new model as some 24g tanks had a slightly smaller chamber causing issues. :/

I am almost up and running. I've ran into a bunch of issues mainly with getting these things cut out in large quantities without spending a fortune. I have a final design i'm going to test fit tomorrow and hopefully back up in running in a week or so!
 
You can't buy one fast enough. Adding this to my tank 40g aquatop recife 40g has change my entire tank. I have had it a little over a month. I had an issue with one of the attachmemts and one was replaced asap. My N and P are finaly balanced out by getting rid of the sponge. Do your self a favor and get this ordered befofe you even set up the tank
 
We have the same tank in the 24g version. I ditched all of the foam that came with it and just put filter floss on top and chemipure underneath in the 1st chamber. Skimmer in 2nd and combo of ceramic and bio-balls in the 3rd. There's really no need for the basket/tray setup. Save your $ and upgrade the light, it's barely capable of maintaining softies.
What light did you go with? I have the 40 gallon
