Biocube filtration

I just set up my biocube led 32. I have already upgraded the stock media basket to the intank basket. Has anyone here done a refugium system in the biocube?

I have a Biocube 32 as well. I use the inTank media basket and the inTank Refuge Basket in the second chamber. I run Chemipure, Purigen, and inTank filter floss in the media basket and Chaeto in the refugium. I use a planted aquarium light from Petco and it grows my chaeto like crazy so there's no need to buy an overly expensive light. I also have an Aquatic Life 115 mini protein skimmer in the third chamber because it doesn't fit in the first chamber with the lid still on. If you have any questions I'd be happy to help!

I have the Aquatic Life 115 in chamber 1 of my Biocube. That is what is was designed for.
