How about an Avast ATS...

[Devaji108]

Hey guys,
just a thought how about an avast build algae turf scrubber...
most DIY are pretty cheaply made including mine.
i would like to see upflow and water fall options from avast, or even kits to DIY.

just a thought. I know it prob. will not happen but i think it would be pretty easy to bring to the market?
something to thing about...

I used to use one of the original Inland Aquatics turf scrubbers, but felt that the upkeep was too high for the perceived benefits. So I haven't really given them much thought since then (1998?). I really think they need to be intelligently integrated into a sump to make maintenance easy enough. We don't currently build sumps, so an ATS product isn't really on our radar right now. Thank you for thinking of us though!

Ctenophore I would be interested on known how to integrate this into a sump. I am thinking of getting one made and would love to hear some your your ideas.

well I have seen some pretty nice custom built ones out there that dont seam to be to much work just take out the turf and scrub it in the sink less work than cleaning skimmers.
but i know the market for such a product is pretty small.
