I just want opinions and spit balls as to design, filter media and sizing.
This is just for a 30gal feeder breeder. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.:)
 
Look at mine on here. It's in diy filters category. Do the same thing but on a smaller scale. Can be used with a power head a pump or a canister filter.

I have 2 canisters. It was a design I used because even if one breaks down I'm still utilizing all the media. Just less flow. The canisters house the mechanical filtration and the overhead filter holds the bio media. For a 6' piece for my 120 gallon it was just under $30. I have mine filled with 3.5 gallons of bioballs

You can even cut the top open after gluing if you wanted to add plants.

Dude that is awesome I was thinking about doing something similar to that just in a different color, just for aesthetics and that of course.
 
It looks better than any other overhead filter I have seen. It just looks like a big light
