The only concern would possibly be a piece of rock breaking and getting stuck, but if you created a little mini area with eggcrate so that the rubble could sit away from the in/out flow, and fill the input end with macro, then LR rubble, then pumping back into the display... Hee, exciting, I say! |
Haha pulitzer
I don't know if you have seen my videos or my threads yet, but I lit the inside of my cannister filter with 5w halogen submersible pond lights (I drilled the top of the canister to route the power cord). My eheims came with media baskets (which are perforated like eggcrate). Cheto in the bottom compartment, LR rubble in the middle, and a 50watt heater in the top.
