Thanks for the time "mate", the frankenfilter as you call it (sounds
good) is a 20gal tank with Acrylic subdivisions.
It works fine with a 100gal system but I dare say that it will work on
something bigger.

Looking at you chemical measurements it DOES NOT WORK
that good even on your 100gal system.

noticed ya still had a bit of an ammonia and nitrite reading.

I need a bigger shed...... I want to put a huge fluidised sand bed filter
on the new system.
Can get almost all the bits for free, and if theres one thing even I can

Not going to be the main one but it's going to look like it is
