Guaging interest in a group DIY project.
I just built a surge bucket for my 90g tank, and (after a good bit of experimenting) got it working pretty nicely I think.
Right now it's still in my basement utility sink (testing away before putting it in place), but if others are interested, I'll document it a bit, take some pics, or movie, maybe even build a second one to show at a meeting or something.
The basic concept is based on plans I found from Aquatouch
http://www.aquatouch.com/surge_b.htm
I ended up modifying to use standard toilet floats and other parts.
Counting the bucket, I'd estimate it's under $10 in parts.
Let me know if interested.
