Very Cool Idea.. I think I might do that in my small tank. How did you hang the pvc plugs that the water is coming from?

Brandon,

I used a 3/4" paddle bit to drill holes through the plexi. And screwed the "plugs" into the "L" fittings through it.

When you unplug the "T" fitting from the PH, the whole thing comes out as 1 piece. Also it allows for ease for taking off the HOB for cleaning.

So far this is my first real success at DIY plumbing. Other things worked well for a while, but then...

oh sorry, HOB is a Hang on Back filter. We little tank people use them for water movement and some make refugiums out of them.
