OK, where does one get an Amiricle prefilter? I can't seem to find these on
any of the online stores.

Now, the top "maroon" tub. It contains nothing but a sheet of felt? If I
understand correctly, the purpose of this tub is just to rain the water down
over the bioballs correct?
What size holes do you drill (is this even important save to make sure
they're big enough to prevent an overflow)?

Thanks again Tom.
