Do you have any way of posting your plans used to make it?

I don't have plans right now. But I could make some up for you. At the right price.:lmao: joking

Pretty cool. How much did it end up costing? Looks like you used some parts of something else (can't tell what) factory made?

The pump is an aqua clear motor. The pipe is PVC central vac pipe. The cup is from a biocube skimmer. The intake is made from a pill bottle and small water bottle. the return is a 90 degree from a water jug and a aqua clear tube intake.

I just need one more part that I could not pick up today. I will make step by step instruction for everyone that is interested. I labeled the parts on this pic. I hope it can be read.
