livingart Posted May 21, 2009 Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 not exactly HOB more a SAE (stand at end) 10L bucket, with glued divider in the middle spout out of side and full of pumice waterflow down one side of divider and up the other, out spout and back in tank used medium flow pump to run i imagine anyrectangular plastic container with wide spout would suffice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AquaVitamins Posted May 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 Ok, i was thinking HOB because i wanted something as an addition to my internal filter, i have read that filters work best when in combination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obliterator Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 draw out ideas on paper? Design something out of glass and stick a small pump in it and it will have the same effect as long and the water over flows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
