here's a update on how i made it

1. here's a list of what i used
   
   2 x 4 inch pipe
   2 x 4 inch straight connectors
   2 x 4 inch blanking ends
   2 x 1-1/2 tank connectors
   1 x 1-1/2 pipe
   1 x 5 inch straight connector for the top
   1 bowl (or anythiny that will hold stones )
   1 piece of mesh
   air stones (i have 4 in mine)
   air pump
   if you noticed on the video the tank connectors are in a hollow this was done by cutting the holes out for the tank connectors and then warming up the pipe up around the holes with a hot air gun to make the pipe soft then put in the connector and push down and tighten the nut on and hold it till it goes cold ( i used a little cold water to cool it down )
   thanks tim

ps thanks for that waterbug i dont know how to do it any other way and feel free to tell me thanks tim
