figured i would update this info for future builders.
glad i put these on the porch :eek:
seen water on the floor.one was leaking,drip,drip,drip.
the fix,just put an o ring on the inside,and an o ring on the outside.
leak stopped so far.

also want to add
the holes in the tupperwares are perfect sizes.i have to "thread" the diy bulks through.
if the holes were bigger,i think it would leak easier.

just cleaned the filter after a month of use and it was really clean.

moved my wild jewel babies out there so now there is 200 babies in 2 of them.
jag in the other.

By any chance did you just try the inside o-ring first or just put both on?

Just curious. I've been lucky so far :D.

I think I'm going to do something like this with some feeders...build up a supply before getting anything that can wipe them all out.... maybe one tub could have a few million guppies just so we can finally get that over stocked with guppies pic that everyone around here wants to see so bad LOL
