That's the beauty of this, it can be scaled down or up based on the needs of the builder. I just started with 5 as I'd rather have too much as opposed to too little. I always have a difficult time gauging how much bio filtration is enough so I often go the route of overkill!
Look on the bright side with this expensive build, if this video gets a million views it will have paid for the lot haha...I do like the look of 5 of those tumbling away though, very relaxing!
A cheap way to secure things in a fish tank w/out suction cups is to scratch up the plastic & super glue on rectangular bar magnets. You can stack them if needed.
Looks nice, but... You can tell by the water surface. There is almost no water flow through the filters. That is the problem with in-tank MB filters. Seems like a waste of time and money. Better to spend money on particulate filtration, and a fluidized bed.
Couldn't you have saved yourself alot of time and money, simply sourcing plastic screws to attach the mag clips instead of the elaborate fixing? I believe those mag clips come with different screw in clips, all you need to do is fit a length of plastic screw which fits in place of the clip end then fix it inside the moving bed suction hole, gluing in place?
I like Dr. Doom’s crazy experimental machines 👍
Bought on amazon but is an invention of yours? Interesting!
Interesting that you've removed that sponges from bottom, cool idea.
tip on bubble noise block off the front out let on the filter and drill 7 or 8 holes on top and you will have less noise i have done it to my one
Does it ever scare the fry?
Hi Foisy, fantastic videos, can't wait for more. I have a question, what do you feed you l333 albino plecos?
Thanks! I feed some Hikari carnivore, Ebo Mussel, New Life Spectrum Thera A, and Plecoceramics tablets. Also add an occasional Indian almond leave.
Diy moving bed filter does work well?
This is a fantastic video. Thanks for posting! Only question I have is do you think you need 6 of these in 1 tank? Would definitely help with cost.
also wondered why they were all in one tank 🤔

@@FoisyAquatics are you going to put that many in each tank?
Just in the one fry tank
Great video! Do you sell your fish to stores still? Or have you found other ways to sell them?
I do, though only when I have a large surplus of fish which doesn't happen often. I primarily sell on Band and via a monthly email list
@@FoisyAquatics Sweet! Good for you man!
Are you going back to lasers? It was going pretty well
I wish, but it has been tough to even run one channel with all the other things going on in life lately :(
@@FoisyAquatics It’s alright

My hope exactly lol!

En ese modelo tendrá para eskimer
Genius
does plastic bad for benefit bacteria ?
Not that I'm aware of!
@KassCeeBee doesnt water flow through it will rinse the k1 itself ?
@KassCeeBee can it hold aerobic bacteria ?
A migo ese filtro mantiene el agua cristalina .

put your sucking cups in boiling water for a few minuts and they will be like new

Don't babies get sucked up through it
Tiny fry can get inside unfortunately
