well i mean the Acrylic im gonna put inside the tank, its gonna have contact with the water, so enamel paint wont leech any?

well the mechanical filter is just an ocasional thing for the most part. well the carbon anyways.
its possible to make them side by side - but a fuge thats only like 3 or so inches wide big enough?

Use krylon fusion for the paint. That's what everyone uses. It's good for inside and out.

As for silicone, black silicone is GE 1200 construction silicone. Great black silicone.

Look up my for sale thread if you want to see a couple of pictures of a 20 gallon all in one tank.

quick question, i made the AIO its a 33g now can be seen here http://www.canreef.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=78947
But for the fuge, im assuming even if it does make pods, will they live going through the Power head on the return, or could they swim/crawl out the intake.
not a major problem either way.
