With the proper nozzle on the hose you can speckle a neighbors house from half a block away....but no I've never cleaned a roller that way.

midnight, try an 18" plastic fan blade. Put the blade down into a shroud like the one around a car fan (older model) to funnel the water back to the center of the pre-filter (otherwise the fan just slings it to the walls and misses the filter). This system is used to aid in offgassing.


Put the paint roller under the output for a makeshift Bio-wheel.

You can stagger several...one under the other in a bio-tower formation.


If you stack the paint rollers on end side by side, you can use them like filter brushes in a side flow box.


Get the paint rollers with the plastic core.

All these things work well but need space to function.

How long did it take to get the paint off you?

LOL with a delicate touch you can control the backwash and send it all in one direction.

dont laugh to much but here it is
this is the overflow hose for the overflow im making.
i siliconed 4 spoons on a straw at an angle then used a clothes hanger to hold it.
the idea was for it to spin like a sprinkler and spread the water around the media.
it kinda works "hard to show in a pic,might get a vid" but it doesnt work as well as i wanted.
oh well at least i tried.
watch now someone will get rich with my idea

haha tha's awesome
