Worlds Smallest DIY Filter!!!!

[@d3115uxor]

holy crap! you put this video together perfectly! multiple cuts and fully instructional! i hope you do very well in the future! you have talent!

[@fpsaquatics9215]

Wow, thank you!

[@azuldragonfly]

Great idea! I’m going to try this for my tiny aquarium with baby guppies. Thanks.❤

[@teresaoakes6545]

This works great! I made it out of a small supplement bottle so it is about the same height but almost twice as wide. Used a strip of filter sponge (cut with a bread knife) to wrap around the inside. Didn't use a straw, but was able to use the air hose with a stone fit snug (no glue). Great idea!

[@fnordrabbit1156]

Where does the straw lead to? And what side should you insert the straw with the holes in the pill bottle?

[@michalob21]

bro! great video. these haters make me laugh and i hope you have the same reaction. great video and keep up the good work!

been searching online for small filter for my beta tank, n ok, ppl r nuts when it comes to prices of them, saw this. took me maybe 10 min, works great, ty.

[@KxPKhaosBunBun]

I just bought a 1 gallon tank for my betta that came with a filter. The filter is too strong for the tank so I started looking for some DYI filters. This is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!

i will try this with hydroponic beads, and put an air stone in the middle as well. so adaptable. my tank is small so these tips are great. love it. saved this video

[@amandacramer1455]

Made this! Used no straw? Couldn’t figure out where that went to? Put the tube all the way thru the media, works amazing!

[@M0rtemD3spair]

I'm really glad I found this since I have so many pill bottles laying around. Some of them being pretty big. Thanks for the video, now I might try this out.

Interesting! Must be good for small quarantine tanks

[@rockarollawmn]

I don't understand how this is a filter? This is a diffuser for the air pump. It has no way to suck water in. If I'm wrong, please tell me how (like actually explain how it sucks in the water it needs to clean) because I NEED a tiny FILTER.

[@reanimaniact3263]

@@rockarollawmn i think it's just the way he created the "filter" that's confusing but the way these types of DIY filters work is With being connected to an air pump and putting the airline tubing inside the bottle through one of the holes he drilled , the other holes that were drilled will be sucking water through because of the air pump/line . all that water being sucked into the bottle will be filtered by either "filter floss / poly-fil " which will polish the water or you can do lava rock or bio-balls or gravel for biological bacteria . once the water is sucked into the bottle and goes through the media it then will exit the bottle through the top with either clean water or clean and cycled water depending on the media used. I've created some before and there's many youtube videos of people doing these types of filters I just think the way he did it here was maybe a little different so idk how effective his method is

[@kausarshahkhan2083]

@@rockarollawmn did you ever find out? I for the life of me can't understand the suck of it. It's a diffuser, I can't visualize it. Even though I made one, because I needed a small one, but I am going to look tomorrow. I have no idea.

Dude I got a betta that I have to put in this own tank but its tiny I've been ricking my brain trying to figure out how to make a tiny filter for his fish bowl. Thank you so much I have everything I need here. :D

Do u have a pump to recommend for this?

[@valentinaqueenofthevalkyri3128]

What type of water pump did you use? This is the coolest idea.. thanks so much!! Subscribed :)

[@yj4stara]

An air pump ?

[@lexerj]

Question - Can you make it less turbulent? I have a small betta tank so I can’t have much flow, otherwise it’ll disturb him.

If you don’t have a drill use a metal hanger and pliers and heat the end of the hanger and make your holes

[@raymondfox7045]

Cool DIY FPS! What is the maximum tank size this filter can handle?

[@yozan122]

I made a similar version of this and when i placed it in my snail tank the snaill poop wont get sucked in it will just move the poop pls tell me how to fix this

[@martinmc9830]

Great Video, thank you. You spoke of a vacuum, i would like to know the principles behind this, ie how can air create a vacuum and draw water in? Any explanation/ links appreciated

[@dano8328]

Please don't use soap. Use either white vinegar or pure bleaach to clean stuff for the fish tank

[@D3Y_on_R6]

How does the air come through it, is there a pump??

[@fruitlove8842]

Great video! Amazing concept.

[@bookmouse770]

How and why do you glue the straw?

[@aniruddh-chakravorty]

anyone using this does it actually work ?

[@amandacramer1455]

Yes!

[@teresaoakes6545]

Yes, but I made it out of a small supplement bottle so it is about the same height but almost twice as wide. Used a strip of filter sponge (cut with a bread knife) to wrap around the inside. Didn't use a straw, but the air hose (with a stone).

[@elegantbettas3335]

Is it ok to use hot glue or super glue for the tank????

[@donnaparks1919]

I like salt and plastic pepper shakers

[@mujrim7ff32]

Bro thank you for the idea

[@bradleyj.fortner2203]

I could see using that as a water polisher. Fill it with activated carbon and poly-fill to remove tannins and fine particles for invisible water. I'll have to try that the next time a piece of driftwood makes my water yellow.

[@haydenpotter6384]

I can’t use a plastic straw I was going to put the filter in my turtle tank

[@gamekid5260]

Hey Chase! I am setting up my first planted tank very soon. I have planted substrate, appropriate lighting and fertilizers. Do you have any tips for advise? #Q&A

[@victorrazo1960]

I am getting a 29 gallon next week. what would you recommend me for a community tank??

[@costinhomescu2010]

Hey bro, how does it work ?

[@donaldyoung9180]

But why use a straw which has to be attached to the air tube? Just put the air hose into the bottle and hot glue the hose to the cap. No tape that would not hold.

[@sixxmesixx]

Just a tip, never put super glue in your tank. Only use aquarium safe glue and a brand new bottle form the pharmacy. They will give them to you free. Then there isn't a chance any medication residue is on the bottle. Purchase a sponge filter (they are so cheap it's almost free). Next, add some carbon to the bottom of the bottle, cut the sponge to fit the bottle and drop it in. Finally, cover and stick in the hose. So long as you have a small enough opening in the sponge the hose will stay. There isn't a need for glue. I figured this out when I used a tiny baby food jar, without the top, as my filter box. Worked great! :-)

[@gwsandj5906]

can you put bio balls as the media

[@presouz1740]

Yeah I can see something I would do differently I wouldn’t use a straw I would use actual air hose and then use a air hose water Backflow protector to connect the two to the pump

[@justiceensign5455]

[@kausarshahkhan2083]

I am still waiting for this to be answered. I can't diy, unless I can visualize how the air is sucked in. He is a good boy, I just need more info.

[@teresaoakes6545]

The air goes up through the top and pulls water with it. This creates a vacuum where water needs to be replaced and comes through the holes drilled in the sides (and through the filter medium). Beneficial bacteria colonize the filter and clean the water as it passes through.

Good idea, but it doesn't filter the water just distributes air same as an air stone.

It was a speedy bla bla talking rather than a descriptive display. You should pay attention more on showing what you do and how you do. My point is that people feel better when their eyes see what's going on, instead of just hearing someone explain things without a display.
