if want to have a quiet such filter, one can select long Pet bottle with base above water level and the air hole on base and slightly above water level. |

[QUOTE=Navanod;9010181]I'm thinking of stuffing K1 media into a TOTTO bubble stopper, cover the bottom opening of the bubble stopper with a mesh that'll stop the K1 from falling back out, and using that as a K1

I've copied bro alan with a little mod. As i don't really like the big bubbling so i have got this CO2 reactor that suit the purpose. The whole idea is at the top i drill a hole and insert a tubing 90 elbow to purge air while the black 90 elbow is for the water to circulate thru the K1 media. |

Wonder if it will be noisy with the K1 knocking against each other and against the totto |

not much sound for the knocking at all is only whether you can tahan the bubbling sound.

There's certainly enough space to fit K1 media inside the TOTTO but cannot put alot.
gryphon is very right that the TOTTO airstone is of a very good quality as I'm only using an Ehiem 3704 (split to 6 other things) |
