Sweet! Everythings great...Nice clean look. Just needs more bio-material and a pre-filter. Put 2 more supports under the drip plate at the walls and you can put a layer of poly-fil on top of it. You need 2/3rds of the bio-material out of the water so just add that much more on top, it looks like it will hold it fine.

With these additions I think this should be a sticky so it doesn't get lost!

Again, Great job!:headbang2

Thanks for all the comments everyone.

As far as the prefilters,i was going to use these,thanks for posting this Lei.

The bio area is only filled with the left over scrubbies from my last project,I orderd 400 more from the $ store.:D

The drip plate is working out very wel,when i cut it to fit I made it very tight so water wont bypass the sides.Its so tight I have to remove it by sticking a srewdriver in one of the holes to ply it up.

Iwill post more pics when I get the tank & filter up & running.

Stay tuned for the next thread of mine:

Dr. Joe,
Do you think I will need the center supports if I dont use the poly fill?
The acillic is .022 thick,will it sag over time?
