Default Power Head

Drop it in a bucket to do your premixing or aerate tap water. I cut open the lid off a Culligan water bottle and mounted an old powerhead in there for agitating the water. Works great! I tie wrapped the cord to the handle and it mounted real slick. Easy to stow, too.

It would be a shame to toss it if it still works.
