BC29HQI and Aqualife 115

Someone out there has to have this combination on their BioCube 29 gal. HQI.
My question is: Are you able to install the back cover completely over the inlet chamber with the Aqualife 115 skimmer in the first chamber without any modifications or cutting of the cover? I would love to upgrade to this skimmer but at the same time keep the cover and clean look of the tank.

I have also been wondering the same thing. I have seen a video or two of it being installed and know it will fit but don't know about the cover. Hopefully someone else with this combo can chime in.

I have it on mine and the cover does not fit. I dont think its a big concern since the tank can run hot. I just place the cover on top and its leaves a small space lets some air in and out.
