I've looked around and tried brute containers and other containers but they aren't the easiest to use or look all that great. So I decided to manufacture my own and this is my first one. Any thoughts or better ideas? My 1/4 water line is connected to a float valve to stop the water from over flowing and I can remove the top to add a power head and heater.

Looks good as is. If you wanted to eliminate using a powerhead, you could connect a return loop from the drain back to the top and add an external pump. I use a Jebao DC-4000 to do just that and it really cranks the water. Cheers!
