My new DIY bio pellet Reactor

[PHILYD1]

So I decided that I can build my own pellet reactor at a fraction of the cost of a new one and I always like a challenge!!

i assume, u push water into bottom (correct ?!) then u have to PM to show how to make a strainer , to avoid the biopellets to go back into the pump, when u turn off and on ( for sure u will damage the pump if plastic biopellets go in) i try many ways, drill small holes etc. most restrict the water flow, then pellets wont move, u need to make narrow slats, by using cut off wheel (use Dremel) Vio.




Upss........ignore my passport picture, that was a mistake :shhh:

u may need to add. more screws, also large washers ( i guess u use stain steel) big chance to crack the cover( w/out wasers) For next DIY use those, i got (or i can buy for u) 1/4-20 tap + drill.

I used 5 screws which is plenty, no pressure in the reactor really

Cost me about $120 with pump
