Because of how I will have to arrange things, I...

I have been busy setting up new equipment on my 250l discus tank and today I got as far as putting the external CO2 reactor in.
Well the existing flow order was: inlet into filter (straight through bottom of tank,it's got drilled pipework.), then output through UV filter before returning to...
