I think that looks like a great set up for the QT. Cute little bakki all nice and enclosed!

The first bakki I built was in miniature for my 50 gallon QT for tosai. I drove it with a 500gph pump running through 4 activated charcoal stuffed filter pads of a modified biowheel hang-on-the-side aquarium filter and into the shower. Media was feather rock. I've never had cleaner, more perfectly balanced water quality in such an overencumbered QT in relation to the fish load I put it under. Ever.

Is the bakki the only filtration you have for your QT, or is there a mechanical filter in use to catch up the fines?
