ok all in all cost me about 5 pound if i bought the pump and 1.99 on pvc
thanks for looking honest opinion

i need to clean this tank but all the fish seem happy
 
also the filter died 2 days ago but all fish were fine :nilly:
 
you should look into those intank filters a little more pricey but wort it
 
i had one but kept crapping out so just built this .
well see how it works lol . there is only a couple of fish in it anyway

guppys ,swordtails and a betta
 
I think Id go to walmart and pick up one of their AquaTech 5-15(penguin minus biowheel knock off) for less than 10bucks.
 
so would i but the cheapest filter here in scotland is like 20 pound and i needed a filter now .

If it works, that is all that is important. Being resourcefull will get you far in life. Keep up the good work :thumbsup:
 
Just use an air driven sponge filter. My personal favorite is the hydro line.
