wilsontantw Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Well infact intend to...but dont know weather can proceed or not...it is hardwork though and i like to Diy things,this is just a mock up and if its work will off course will change the outlook and im intend to use other material instead of acrylic...maybe fibre...anyway will have to test if it works... Thanks bro.... acrylic is okie lah... make it look simple, and offer at a irresistible price. You'll find yourself making millions in no-time. btw, if you can make it work by both gravity and pump use, it'll be super! Quote decommissioned 2.5x2x2 Videos: | | Your mind is like a parachute.

Ya acrylic make it look simple and for the price wise it is about the same as fibre though as i can make use of my mock up scrubber as a mould....for mine now im going to make use of my return pump 3000l/h to supply to my scrubber and use the valve to control the require flow needed for the scrubber...no need to use additional pump....and the return from the scrubber will flow back to the main tank....

You'll find yourself making millions in no-time. btw, if you can make it work by both gravity and pump use, it'll be super! Infact it can be done, for those who have build in IOS system can meke use of the overflow part to direct the flow to the scrubber and for those who have sump can make use of the down pipe to supply flow to the scrubber by using the gate valve to determine the require flow needed for the scrubber and a the balance will direct to the sump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
