I'm not talking about a powerhead. More one of these:Be very careful with this. Another reefer made a diy magnetic driven powerhead and got a nice letter from a certain manufacturer telling him to stop posting about it.
Apparently their patent makes it illegal to make one even for private use.

DIY "Vortech" Style Pump
So, for the pico methodology build contest thats about to start i decided to set up a 1/4 Gallon SPS reef, but with a shortage of small enough pumps for water movement i decided to go the diy route and build my own... with a little research i decided shrinking the Ecotech marine "Vortech" would b...www.nano-reef.com
It's a HOB filter from the 70s/80s. Tube on the top is a siphon. Magnetic motor hangs off the bottom. Motor turns on, spins a magnetic impellar, which sucks water in through the siphon tube and into the body (which is full of filter floss) which overflows into the tank.What in the world is that device

I keep aiptasia in a jar. Cant find the original pic and I know it is posted on here somewhere.
Mason jar with plastic screw on lid, small hole for light cord and tiny usb pump. Pump points up and ahi rates the top, just a little. Feed a hair of reef roids once a week and change 100% of water a few hours after feeding. I use some old tank water and that’s it.
Plan to setup a majano one when I can figure out how to get some leds with just enough power to make them grow, but not melt the cap.

Here is an edited pic lol.
for the aiptasia you don't need pump at all to grow properly, water change like he say, food and light 100% enough to grow fast enough.what kind of pump have you got in there?

I know they don’t need it, I’ve had an aiptasia jar for six months, I changed water once, no pump, no light and I don’t feed. They’re still fine haha.for the aiptasia you don't need pump at all to grow properly, water change like he say, food and light 100% enough to grow fast enough.
I'm keeping aiptasia in a sealed box and per 1-1.5 months I change 40-50% water, only stay under light, and that's all about it.
Just google and pick up 200l water pumpI know they don’t need it, I’ve had an aiptasia jar for six months, I changed water once, no pump, no light and I don’t feed. They’re still fine haha.
I’m setting up a 2 gallon with the picoreef led and am looking for small pump ideas
Okay great thanks! Wow those are cheap too hahaJust google and pick up 200l water pump
I have this 200l
and few of this 200l
all work perfectly, probably for 2 years non stop. Pic this designs easy to control with variable voltages, most are 12V and they work from 4.5v -12v (easy to control the water current speed). 200liters per hour it's near 50g/h (if my calculations in US gallons are correct) they cost in USD $5-$9 from china mainly if you fish or look from eBay EU.
P.S. OOPS, I see now you are from Poland, you can find them easy in eBay then, just look the design tested already
you can pickup and from this LINK , but don't buy USB pumps try one not good enough I think
