Looks similar to mine. I wouldn't use the bio-balls, instead use bio-bale (Seems to work a lot better). Where your live rock is, is where I have added my fuge with some live rock. Also, mine has the mechanical filtration on the right side as I think my fuge gets some added benefit from the raw water.
