What you guys think of this filter?

[andyc228]

this is what i been thinking of making for 180gallon tank:
please rate

1. get rubbermaid see through storage box.
2. make hole on lid
3. make holes in the bottom of the box
4.place a big piece of filter media on bottom
5.fill the rest of box with media of your choice
6. get a submerisble pump , more gph the better
as long as the holes in bottom of box are
big enough to handle the water from overflowing
7. get hose or tube from pump , put in the top of the lid where u made on step "2"
8. place ontop of your tank and it should flow right back into your tank.
