    So as some of you know, the CPR Bak Pak sometimes has problems with the micro bubble, they weren’t that big of a deal but they were really getting on my nerves.
    CPR makes an internal Bubble trap (Pic 1) for the Bak Pak 2 only.
    I have the CPR Bak Pak Dual pak which some of you know is bigger.
    So I took it upon myself to fab up my own Bubble trap, I finished yesterday and installed and I have 95% less micro bubbles. SO Happy. Check it out on Pic#2( I know its not as pretty but I think for DIY and them not making this i shoud go work for them. :cheesy:

    nice work, diverdan

    doesnt seem logical that they have 1 for one unit and not for the other

    I like your DIY one....I may make my own since I can gets small scraps of acrylic at a store near me fof free. then move the rock to the fuge.
