Here's my 55 gallon tank

Here's my 55 gallon tank. I had an issue with the driftwood not sinking after 2 weeks of soaking so I zip tied it down and put some rocks to make sure it doesn't float

It's my DIY k1 kaldnes media filter. I had to zip tie that in place too, I know it's sad

It's my DIY k1 kaldnes media filter.

I'm interested in learning more about this. Can you post a link or instructions on how to do it, setting it up, and how it works?

Thanks

FYI I purchased k1 media from eBay cause I couldn't find it in the store

I devised a cool way to keep new driftwood from floating without the zip tie look, Buy a piece of slate floor tile from home depot drill a couple holes in it and screw stainless steel screws into the wood, cover the slate with substrate and that stuff wont budge lol. Tank looks awesome though has a fresh natural look to it!

I tied a 10 pound rock to the driftwood so it would soak, the driftwood was actually picking the rock up, that's why I went with the method I used, egg crate and a bunch of heavy ass rocks
