Vortex Diatom filters are great. I bought one when they first came out on the market. The motor was made by the Singer sewing machine company back then. Great filter and perfect for mending socks.

vortex is awesome. gets run once a month on my tanks for about 30 minutes each. tricky the first time out but nothing too challenging to use/clean/charge.

i enjoyed making the gravel vac outta the pop bottle.very diy


what gives with the pool powder?? ive heard both good and bad reviews. i figure you'd save a ton if its ok to use.
