Very nice! For future builds you can buy clear PVC. Not that it is needed but I like to see that my media is tumbling.
 
What are your demensions? Dont want to pay alot of money for a store bought one. And have limited space next to my sump.
 
Looks like the base is a a upside down toilet bowl flange with a a hole drilled and tapped for the 3/4' fitting. Awesome Idea and nice build!
