Haha nice! The bucket idea sounds pretty cool. It would be neat to use 4 buckets as the sump and add 3" holes to some with pvc there to flow to the next!!! I may have to try this now!
yah! You can stuff one with foam, one with poly fill and one with bio balls?? I think that would work great.. Throw a uv sterilizer on that baby and watch out floating in air fluffster!I am gonna try buckets! I think it will be very neat!
awesome! If it works I'm totally copying you!I'm gonna do it! 3 buckets. 1 with biomedia, 1 with Floss and the last for the return! I love DIY! I'll draw up some designs!
Wouldn't you want bio media after coarse filtration(egg crate)? Will you be drilling the tank?
good po.into, you'll just have to manually restart the siphon whenever you do a wc? No link to my brain sorry.. If you're interested I'll think something up, it'd be way simple, basically a float that when it hit a certain level, either to high it low, would shut the pump off, as long as the siphon tube wasn't to low in tank it would kill the siphon too!The siphon won't break! It's only a 3 ft drop to where it's gonna be. I've never used a ball float for a water pump. Got a link I can read up on it?
