I don't really satisfy with the quality of online fish as well.

My 'best' filter is a combination of an external filter which runs in combination with a home made trickle to both improve the water quality and take the energy out of the water flow. It makes more of a rainfall effect than a flow. The water quality is great and the fish get O2 rich water.

Can you show me the pic of trickle tower setup plz? I am interesting as well. Does it make a lot of noise?

Not sure how to post picture so I will try to explain.

I have 'acquired' a supermarket shopping basket which i have suspended above the tank (actually an old bathtub!) In the basket i have put in some bio-balls and on top of this I have placed a fridge salad box into which I have drilled a lot of holes. In the salad tray I have put a whisper bio bag filled with carbon and a couple of sponges from an old filter. The direct stream of water runs onto this, then through the holes and over the bio-balls then into the tank.

It is not the handsomest piece of fishkeeping equipment, in fact its ugly!! But it does the job and is in our basement. My wife really does not appreciate it!

With regard to noise it is like being next to a small water fountain. Not quiet but you get accustomed to it and it can sort of be regulated by either lifting or lowering in relation to the surface of the main body of water. I like the sound but you wouldnt want it in your bedroom!

Hope this helps, i will try and post pics but dont hold your breath.
