Very interesting and innovative. Keep up the good work!

@kfor714The Wal-Mart craft section and Home Depot are an aquarist's best friend. Long live redneck engineering.

When you are done using the filter it simply pulls off the frame and you can reuse the frame. You can also rinse these out several times. Just dump the old carbon out and blast them with a water hose then add new carbon. They last several months at least using this method.

If you are doing this just for mechanical filtering and not using carbon you don't even need to use hot glue. Just wrap the quilt batting around the frame and trim it close and stick it in the filter. I do that on my 65 gallon Aquarium because I don't use carbon in the Whisper filter because I have a carbon chamber to hold activated carbon. Todd
