I think the Aquadyne remains a pretty good bead filter, but there are several on the market and somebody is always coming out with a new feature of one sort or another. I'm not so sure about the gadgetry, but before you copy what I have, check around. I'd suggest you start a new thread asking for bead filter comments and recommendations... try on this board and on Koiphen and Koi Shack. You'll get an earful!
