![]() thanks christy!
after the tank running for about a month, we noticed that the filter wasnt as wide as the water column so it wasnt filtering all the water. here is what the flow looked like. notice how a fairly large amount is passing by the right side? ![]() stock filter out. ![]() so i cut 3 of these for "levels" for the new filter ![]() then i used an 80 tooth saw blade on the table saw and cut some acrylic ![]() here is the acrylic weld i used ![]() so i built it 3 sided, so i can put the media in the open side, and the outside wall of the tank acts like the 4th side. here it is ![]() ![]() and here it is with filter floss in the top, carbon in the middle (waiting on chemi-pure for 3rd chamber) ![]() and here it is in action ![]() notice how the whole water collumn is going into it now! it actually cleared up the water after a water change about twice as fast. let me know what you guys think
