an old fluval 203


I have this old thing in the basement, it filtered my 38g years ago when it was freshwater. It worked great but after a few years one of the bases of the tubes broke off; there is a nut that needs to be turned to loosen the connection, that's what broke. I'd like to use the spraybar when I get my new tank and sump and I was wondering if you had any ideas of getting some more use out of this old filter?

we tried that, you have to get it just perfect cuz it's a tight area and it would leak... I looked on ebay thinking I could pick up an old one to refab mine, but no luck. Not a big deal really...
