I needed a few media trays for the lid filter which is situated in the lid rear, and i was unhappy with the 4 foot of coarse sponge you would fight with trying to get it out spilling water all over the place.
I wanted the trays to be multi purposed so separate and be able to clean them as a single unit and not have to turn the power head off, Multiple medias can now be used safely, ie. fine and coarse sponges filter bio balls and ceramic tubes and activated carbon. what ever you want them for really.
The trays are loose in position and not tight as I wanted the water to flow past the tray if clogged up. I also wanted a fail safe tray exit end on the minuscule chance of all trays being clogged up the water could flow and not be impeded to get to the exit end without over spilling in a way by passing the filter, A bit over kill , yes, however I'd like to keep the 300 litres of water in the tank and not wreck the carpets and loose hundreds of pounds worth of fish.
