Nothing fancy. I plan on drilling it to add a quick drain system for easier water changes though.

Here is mine (when it was first set up and nice and clean). The middle section is filled with cheato and I've added an auto top off and a UV sterilizer.

thanks for all the pics sofar. Jayson the PVC pipe in yours is there just for added integrity for the baffles due to the DSB?
