Ok I got my LR and water but I have a few questions.
1. My LFS told me that since I am using the
surface skimmer that came with the aquapod that I dont need or want live sand. They said it will build up lots of nitrates and become a problem later down the road.
2. I filled my tank today and I was told by the LFS to fill to the max fill line. Well it doesnt seem to be skimming at all, the
bio balls arent really moving and the water really isnt skimming off the top but I do have good outflow from my pump. I made a picture to show where my water line is. Any idea where it should be?

3. The aquapod came with 3 bags 2 of them had white tubular filteration things and 1 bag of carbon looking stuff. I have no real idea where they go. I know the sponge goes in the first chamber and the bio balls go in the 3rd chamber since they were in there already and the last chamber is where the pump is at. Please help me out. Pic included.
