Best flow for filtration in Fluval 13.5?

[Luke Burns]

Current order from top right to left is


1. Filter Floss

2. ChemiPure Blue

3. Purigen

4. MarinePure


Is this the best order? And I have a lot of extra space thanks to the intank media baskets so do I need to fill that in?

I've been wondering the same thing. I'm ordering the inTank chamber 1 basket today. Reading thru various forums, I'm going to go with poly filter pad on top, chemipure (x2) in middle, purigen and fluval rings on bottom... then fill chamber 2 with marine pure balls.
I currently have the Fluval skimmer in chamber 1. Looking forward to getting rid of it. It's loud and kinda a pain in the butt to keep adjusted correctly.

I have mine with the filter floss on the top, then a micron media pad, then purigen, then GAC

Chemipure Blue and Purigen? Is this redundant? Are you shooting for zero nitrates and phosphates?

If I understand correctly, I think Chemipure Blue is activated carbon and a phosphate reduction resin, right? And what is Purigen again?
