Hi Charles
on killietalk and in your SKS magazine I saw that in the US there
are people who need info on constructing them
I simplified the filters to really the bare minimum on work involved
I will add the photo's of the last filters I have been making based
on the use of round pvc tubing cut in half with a jigsaw and made to
the lenght needed for the tanks and with lips for the support of the
filter on the tanks. As sidings I am using plastic insect screen
glued on the side with pvc glue. Some small holes in the botom and a
bigger hole where you want it for the vertical tubing (outer tube 10
mm inner tube 5 mm) giving you the optimal water lift.
Adding a bottle top with a 4mm hole in it avoiding the water
splashing and a protection on the botom of the tube avoiding fish to
be caught in the tube finishes the filter construction .
filling the filter with lavarock (1/2 inch size) is all you need
