In today’s video, i show an example on how to build a basic moving bed sump for your aquarium, while discussing the pros and cons.

which pump do you use to aerate the k1 compartment ???
Hey I wanna ask something. How much power (L/min perhaps) of your aerator pump used in this video? Thank you!
You can also use wagon wheel pasta instead of K1 as a cheap alternative that doubles as a quick, nutrient-dense snack
What is the benefits of k1 kaldness?
I’d be looking into solar especially for how big your fish room is now.
Hello.. how many liter k1 needed for 55 gallon tank
Currently I'm using a 2500lph wavemaker and a 160lph airpump to circulate my k1 chamber. It's doing the job but I only want 1 thing to be powering it. What can I use? A powerful wavemaker?
I am completely lost. I have a 420 aquarium with a 90 gallon tank underneath as the sump. The portion allocated for the k1 media measures 32.5" long x 18" deep x 23" tall. I don't feel the water up to 23". I leave about a 6" to 7" space for power outrages. How much k1 should I be using?
Ohpinion
Have you thought about aquaponics? You could zero out your bills.
what volume of aqua kaldnes K1 micro filter media required per 100 liters of aquarium water ?
Would this constant moving media cause motion sickness to the poor bacteria? 🤣🤣🤣
What aerator capacity did u used?
haha dang old school
Haha I like this old video Joey, your voice sounds like miss doughtfire! Lol
Where do I get the filter particulate?
I still love going back to your videos
1 liter of air per minute per liter of media?
One day the US will catch up with the rest of the world and talk in metric
Nawww baby Joey 😂
สวัสดีจร้ามาชมนำจร้า👍😘🌹👌
I'm just about to 3d print this media in food safe plastic.
My confusion isn't how to set up a sump, it's how to attach a sump to a tank 😅
Silicone!!!???? No Way!!! use a bonding agent to keep it there
Your videos are very good and informative but dam your voice is hella annoying so high pitched man 🤫🤫
With that said
Well you video is clear as mud LOL
I setup a hang on the back fluidized moving bed filter. Thanks Joey!
I look at the fluidized media and how it floats around beating up against other media balls. I imagine little bacteria living on each piece of media as it goes crashing into another media halls smashing the little critters as it moves around the filter box, like planets colliding into others.
So I prefer a media that stays put in one spot as the water moves through it, giving them a stable place to live.
However there is probably some science behind the fluid media, maybe it grows bacteria better and all my thoughts are unfounded.
We always used Bio Blocks or Bio Balls in saltwater tanks, so they're what I will probably use…guess I'm stuck in the 90's.
