55 gallon filter
« on: April 02, 2008, 07:13:50 PM »
Anyone have a link or some help in constructing a 55 gallon drum filter?  I searched here and all I found were skippies.  Any help will be appreciated.

I built my 55 gal drum filter according to Kent Wallace's design on Koiphen, I modified my media to include strapping however this year I will be adding the sand and gravel, here is a link to his construction page, along with a link to the DIY page on Koiphen.
