[QUOTE="Twapster, post: 262305, member: 1582"] Interesting, i've only ever used a high banker, looks like you are trying to create a river sluice....without the river so to speak? In one of my aquariums at home I have a "waterfall style" filter.......with this in mind its possible that sort of system may work where you can adjust the flow of the water in terms of volume via the pump, but I can see if you increased the height of the waterfall it would create more pressure maybe?? So the right amount of volume and the right height may give you some help. Obviously the angle of the sluice will also dictate how much gets cleared out. Bread crate would probably clog up because the flow wouldn't be powerful enough I would think. If you use spray bars it will probably spray all over the place and be too powerful. [/QUOTE]
