| Hello All, It's been a while since I posted last, so I just wanted to get back on the board while hopefully giving some useful information to other people who like DIY projects. You see, I recently set up three new aquariums and decided to shocase some of the steps I went through. This is not a tutorial on how to set up a fish tank, but it does show people how to make some items for themselves (if they want to). In the following link I discuss how to make DIY undergravel filters, DIY internal canister filters, and DIY backgrounds. As to why I am using the link instead of directly posting it, I did not want to eat up a lot of space on the board with the pictures. I hope the link isn't a problem for anyone. http://sites.google.com/site/moashowmanyfish/tower-build Please take a look at this material and tell me what ya think. Sincerely, MOA

| The flow rate of the UGF is 144 GPH (14.4 cycles per hour), the flow rate of the 20-gallon internal canister is about 140 GPH (7 cycles per hour), and the 10-gallon internal canister is about 60 GPH (6 cycles per hour). MOA
