4.9litre Joe tradition style- http://www3.telus.net/salomaa/ks/zeo...odel%20(1).pdf
Can't get the price down to make it attractive mainly due to the cost of the 3ft of acrylic tube. 6" 1/8"wall cast pipe is not available at this time  and would need to be manufactured with an added cost so I went with 1/4"wall tube. The 2 tubes alone cost $125 making the total material cost $178. Probably not worth making and better off to hit the store for one.
Alternative Horizontal Design- http://www3.telus.net/salomaa/ks/zeo...HORIZONTAL.pdf
Maybe get in much less trouble by not doing knockoffs I came up with different design that would be much more cost effective. This sealed cylinder would take up much less space and could be wall mounted in a cabinet or fish room wall. Flow control would be with a speed fit valve. The pump would be placed in the sump with 1/2" connection.
Any thoughts on this  |
i like a horizontal unit a lot !
This would make shaking/ moving media so easy. And will save the space too.
I dont care how thick the walls are as long as it will hold the water. The only thing is that it will become non transparent very(?) quickly due to scratches.
Other then that its very good. And I would actually prefer horizontal unit myself.
Good work !
