I want to do some tank upgrades to my RSM 250, but not necessarily DIY? or is it?
#1 - I want to add some rock rubble to the back for more bio filtration. Should I use the media rack? or can I place a bag in the rear right chamber? I'm not sure if that power head is strong enough to keep the flow well through rock so I might need to upgrade. Is there something better than rock that I could use? Right now I'm using the stock items and chemi-pure.
#2 - I want to add an ATO. Is there an easy, dummy proof way about doing this? When it involves plumbing of any sort I scare myself into thinking I'm going to somehow burn the house down.
Thanks for your help!

I installed a tunze 5017 in the right chamber. It was so easy!! put it in through the slot made for the chiller. I would recommend this as the first thing everyone should do with the RSM 250.
I'm also in the middle of setting up my doser pump and contemplating installing LEDs instead of the T5 fixture but doing a lot of reading before I pull the trigger on that one.
