Yes I know, but the model I built does not recycle through itself like the old Vortex Diatom filters did. That feature never worked very well because the hole inside where it was supposed to cycle through was much to small. If you kink the hose on this one, nothing would happen.They would work on a Vortex diatom return hose just like the hose kinking I mentioned above because the filter internally cycles via the turbulence tube. Since your design can't facilitate a tube, your powder just falls.
With the container starting you gave me, there is no need to kink the hose, use the internal tube or a valve. It works perfect and is simple.
