I have been looking into filter for my 55 gallon and came upon a idea for a hang on the back sump for my tank. Some thing in the range of 24-30" long X 4.25" wide and 10-12" high. I really like the idea of little chance of overflow and it should re-start if the power goes out. I have tired a few canisters but the battle with leaks, nutrient build up, flow is not that great. I do like the AC HOB but i would like larger media area. Suggestions or fears welcome Thanks
 
No! Ive never thought of it, but it sounds interesting!
 
I've seen many people use AC filters as HOB refugiums, and seen several others create/buy custom HOB boxes to use as a fuge. Its a sound and proven concept.
