How well does it work? Thanks

it filters the dirty water from the gravel vac then pumps it back into your tank.

yeah, but does it work good? Is it worth the price? How often do you end up having to replace the catridges?

Theres someone on youtube that has a DIY one. I actually thought about trying it. I was going to start a thread asking if anyone tried doing their own but ended up forgetting to. I just saw it a few days ago.

I was thinking about doing a DIY one myself. You happen to have a link to the youtube video?
