Has making these Podcasts available through bittorrent been considered. It could ease the server load.
yes, but since i cant track downloads and i loose total control over the file (incase it needs to be updated or fixed) i do not allow or supported the distribution using bit torrent.
these delays usually clear up within a few days

Well I am hoping this works out well. I have a 6 gallon cryptic fuge with about 10 or so lbs of LR in it on my tank and I believe its the only thing keeping my fish alive considering that I have a hard time getting water changes taken care of.

Hey All,
Well I watched the podcast and was so motivated by it I went out to the store that afternoon and got some supplies. Here is the version i made, the only difference is i found a 3" piece for the top that had a spout. I currently have a piece of a bottle i washed and cut up to use as a top. thanks for the video podcast it was great!

I like the idea of the top. And since you have the black hood, it should hide behind there quite well. When did you set it up and what did you fill it with? Also, i don't see the hose from the powerhead in the images. How did you hook that up?

For the powerhead I am using a minijet 606 like the one in the podcast, and i also set my hoses up similarly, using 45 degree bends. i still have to mess around with the powerhead and where i want it in the tank. I filled it with some Fiji LR from my LFS. It hasnt been running too long as of yet. HOpe this answers everything.
good point rob. After i had mine set up i was thinking that since the output spout is so large relative to the amount of water coming from it, you could string the hose up through there. This might also save you from having to drill through the damn PVC. There was a part in the video i cut out since it would have reduced my (imaginary) respect and threatened my ego. When drilling through the top the drill bit got caught and spun the cap around slashing my hand. Dumb thing.
But to the point, yes i think you could string the hose up through the 45 output. I understand your concern about where to place the powerhead Sgt. Mine is just hanging down behind a piece of LR.

Thanks for the welcome CarmieJo! I go to OSU so always good to see a fellow Buckeye.
well just for fun here i took a picture of how i have it situated, i have the pump running it in the upper right corner, and in the other shot you can see the tube and the sweet looking plastic i zip tied on to take care of the bubbles.
