No, it never became the most popular media basket. The Aquapod 24 is not the most distributed AIO aquarium on the market but that didn't keep us from focusing our advancement in technology on it's product line.

The AP24 media basket is by far our favorite basket, it has so much design and ingenuity that it is hard to ignore on first glance. This basket simply belongs in the aquarium, like it was there from the start. As if the designers of the aquarium thought it needed a beautiful filtration area amongst the mass produced look of the rest of the tank.

This basket slips smoothly into the intake grate of chamber one. Blocking off all water except for what spills over into the top. Producing perfect surface skimming and directing flow into filter floss. It's black front blocks all views into the chamber and it's removable rear door when closed forces water though the unit and the media housed.

Simply put, this is inTank's bestest most awesomness media basket.
