Mini Filter

[Floyds mum]

I need to get/make a mini filter for following tank for semi-aquatic toads. Water level is roughly 3/4inches. You can see the current filter and heater but i need one that takes up less room.
Any DIY ideas?

Thanx, would it work if i made it shallower?

You can turn it on irs side, thats what you do when you put them in breeding tanks.

Huh? what i meant is making one but instead of using a full sized food tube use/cut it down so its not as tall as it would normally be?
But they can go on their sides?

Yay thanx might try to make another one later today, can you reccommend any air pumps/powerheads that are really quiet? ive had elite and it was noisy

TetraTec are by far the best! Extremely quiet.
The wattage that you will need will depend on the tank litres.
Hope that helps.
