The odd burst of foam and then nothing for a day or 2. Of course, I've only just put fish in it a couple of weeks ago so the load was pretty much nil.

I'll try lowering the cup height a bit and see how that goes.

The prefilter box isn't terrible expensive (~$35) but I'd like to try and make my own, for the heck of it.

If you ever get up to Edmonton I have a prefilter box on my Remora C Pro that you can measure up for reference. It would not be hard to fabricate.

The Remora and Remora Pro are different sizes and have different pre-filters but frankly, just being able to see how the whole thing goes together vis-a-vis the pump and water levels etc. would probably be enough.

Thanks though !

If I get a chance I will measure up the one on my Remora Pro anyway so you have an idea of what size box you will need to fabricate. Good luck with the mods.
