Thanks.


(Do you know where your water quality is?)

Anyone have a way to build a vacuum drain much
like the Tetra or the spindrifter?

I'm constructing a drain similar to the Tetra bottom drain and expect
total cost to be around $15. I'll post pictures explaining how I
built it in the next few weeks (link below).

Looking forward to seeing what you came up with. I 've heard of people
taking a dome-shaped trash barrel lid and attaching a shower drain at the
top.
