All you have to do is remove all the media baskets and silicone in one acrylic baffle. I also cut down the impellor a little to slow down the flow.

I cut a hole out of the lid and put a little Hagen aquahome light on top (which is really nothing more than a night light). I used a mini-CF bulb from IKEA. The thing grew chaeto like mad. I had to prune it weekly because there isn't a whole bunch of room in there.

I even had enough room on the impellor side of the baffle to jam a small media bag if I wanted to.

I ran it on a reverse light cycle at night so I had to wrap the whole thing in electrical tape. It looked pretty ghetto but worked like a charm.

i did the same but ran mine 24/7. worked very well...
