Pinted with pla, 5 layer densities to reduce bubble size and increase contact time in main chamber

I removed the becket and installed a venture on rec pump the incensed volume made me turn pump down, so the bubble buster keeps the bubbles in main chamber longer , tricking it into thinking ir has a larger chamber, simply put it works.

Going to print a prefilter to catch the large detris and plant material from fuge, a adjustable float is a must.

Thats what you make out of a old trickle filter..lol. If you don't have one yet build yourself one..you could build one so efficient that you can control nutrients just with the mat..

first pic on 6/15/17 second today 9/6/17 , the a filter media is 35 foot long 11.5" wide , looks like about half way threw the roll, I made two rolls for $70.00 it should go six months a roll.. I will try and wash the first one when it's done, will experiment with different media type's as well..

Wow, that is scary! Glad you got to it in time.
That filter roller is a great idea.
I take care of an aquarium made my Seavisions and they use that system as well. Extremely efficient.
Not sure your going to want to clean that filter roll, though.. it gets pretty stinky after sitting there for months..

More cleaning!! Getting better..

So, I changed the china baby motor to a stepper motor, and belt drive, works great.

A nice side effect going threw the apex is that it kills all power to stepper motor and the mat relaxes and filters more efficient.
