I built mine similar to that design. I did not have the room to house such a large unit, so I scaled it down to fit. I made a few revisions to the original plan to simplify the construction too. I've had it running for a year and a half now, and its terrific. It hold one full container of ARM media, and that lasted just over a year. These pictures are from when I first set it up. I've since changed the CO2 feed a bit, and have added a ph probe for my controller.
