Looks neat. How much did you spend on the pump to make it work? Was it worth the money and time? I mean is it at least serving its purpose?

simple design and it also can be used as an internal filter!

didnt actually spent much on this project.most of the stuff were gathering dust in my house if you make a good one.its definately worth the time and money.if i were to make another of this with better materials and a new pump its going to be about 5 times cheaper than the commercial ones of the same size and flowrate.
