    You should make a whole series on how to "hack" or "modify" existing equipment. Like how to create a diy inlet skimmer attachment for your external filter. Or how to create your own lilypipe type of things

      DIY water flow diffuser you can connect to the outlet of a cannister filter would be a cool one.

    I got your book and a t-shirt a few years ago. Thanks again for the inspection. As of my aquarium everything is DIY about it. The stand, the filter the light's. I got poting soil and cheap sand from Rona, lava rock from outside decoration and branches from the river side. All boiled. My fish tank has been running for a few years. Thanks again. Love to see you are back more often and doing better.
