Derpeder Candiru MFK Member Dec 18, 2006 838 0 46 Oct 19, 2007 #106 I made one!!! I don't have pics yet and I'm leaving out of town today so I'll post pics up next week. Thanks for your instructions I used them. Gotta finish out the details but it looks good so far. I used a 30 gallon tank that will filter a 100 gallon.
