    I have an fx5 and every tray is seachem matrix. I use the sponges they sell for the outer rings on every tray. I have this filter plumbed with split intakes. I use sponge prefilters that are 9" at about 30ppi

    The hole in the glass is usually bigger than the size you order. When installing 1" bulkheads in my tanks I used a 1 3/4" holesaw.

    That book shelf is designed to be oriented vertically. It's not made to hold weight in the direction the tank is putting it.

    I have a similar setup and use the linear pump. I recommend it.

    The industrial shelving units from sam's club or home Depot are hard to beat right now considering the price of lumber.

    I do small daily automatic water changes using solenoids and a sprinkler controller. The flow rate is 0.5 gallons per minute. The time the valve is open is set based on tank size. The tanks are drilled for overflow. Water goes thru the filters and straight into the tanks. The drainage goes into my outdoor pond stock tank.

    I have chloramine and I run auto water changer daily thru several different filters, mostly carbon. If you have chlorine instead it's even easier and the filters can treat alot more gallons.

    I have used the longer skinny one to heat my brine shrimp hatchery in the winter I wrapped it around the outside. Problem if it is under the tank will be the rim putting extreme pressure on sections of the heating element.

    3/4" or 1" I have my pump indoors. They are common for use in septic systems in pretty adverse conditions. I think you will be ok.

    You could try putting them all back together. It will either strengthen the bond between them or they will each pick a better mate.

    I moved my dehumidifier so now the brine blenders sit right above it.
