    So I am using a filter for my 20g fish only, not going to use a skimmer but the filter is for a 40g tank, what media should I use for this tank?

    You will definitely want to use carbon and a phosphate remover! Also, stack up on the biological filtration!!!! DSB and live rock for optimal filtration at the expense of no skimmer, which I feel is best to use.
    A weekly water change will aid in the quality of your water and be careful of overfeeding!
