Fuge in chamber 2 of a Cardiff--DIY help

Anyone have instructions on how to make a fuge out of chamber 2 of the Cardiff tanks? They are the same as a solana. Is it worth doing? Appreciate it.

I'm not familiar with either of those tanks but I've used a chamber in a JBJ Nano Cube and Bio Cube with good results. It doesn't take a lot of light. I get plenty reflected light in my current Bio Cube to gro a bit of chaeto and keep some pods happy.

Can you post some pictures?

It's the same as the solana tank where there are 3 chambers. In the middle chamber are 2 plastic plates for a pad on top and bioballs and charcoal on the bottom. What order of thing (chaeto, floss, LR, etc) do I put in there and what light do I need?

Thanks.

How do you have your chamber setup for the fuge---top to bottom?

Thanks.
