Micro Murray filtration system

[doctorjuit]

I needed a small filter for my PVC aquaponics

this cost me less then 20 bucks and I think it could run 3 or 4 more pvc pipes

I used:
2 buckets 1 square and 1 round
3 electrical coupling PVC and some 1 inch diameter PVC I had from my aquaponics system
filter media 4 bucks for a meter

I just get water from my GB primary hose to the swirl filter then to a media filtration

the key of the swirl filter is to put the hose on the water level and let the gravity do the rest

I clean the filter at the sump tank so they dont get wasted on the filter

I just bought a watchdog system on ebay for 90 bucks

I made a small hydrolift setting it works great it moves the sediments or fish poop to the sump collectors

also if you put a basket near the sump collectors the fish will poop a lot in that area
