DIY Wet Dry Walkthrough?

[johnnycoolxx]

I searched MFK for a walkthrough with pics of how to make my own wet dry system, but I couldn't find anything.

Can someone put up a link that shows how to make a DIY wet dry step by step?

I used this guys setup for my first one. For some reason he changed all of the step by step pics to a snakehead pic but might be worth the reading

This is my DIY wet/dry. I have 2 of these under my 315G tank and they are joined by an 1.5" piece of PVC to keep the water level between the 2 wet/drys. I think from the picture you can see how it was put together. Anyway, water enters the sump via an overflow. The water enters the pinkish colored 10G tote which I have filled with Poret foam that is covered with 50 and 100 micron filter pads. Water going through the pads and foam and out the bottom into the larger 50G tote. From there it is pumped back into the tank. A very simple and cheap wet/dry.
