This one will do ya. you can modify it to fit your needs.

Any cheaper and you'd have to steal it.

For $15 ea you can use commercial floor scrubber pads (course and finer (polishing ) pads) for first 2 layers and then pot scrubbers for the W/D.

So simple it almost hurts.

Keep us posted,

Not too much of a smell. Your going to have an ammonia spike when the tank cycles.

Don't want your filter going anaerobic on you.

What's your water chemistry like?

Got any pics of your set-up?
