My 10g filter has broken and I am in dire need of a new one. I'm broke, so the cheaper the better. Pm me prices, location and what the filter is rated for. Thanks!

I have one, but I can't get it started. I suck at that though. It is rated for 10g, if you still are in need of one. You could have it for $5, and it would come with an extra filter pad. PM me if you still need it. -
- The easiest type of filter to build is an undergravel filter. With this type of filter, aquarium water is drawn through the tank's gravel at the bottom of the tank to filter. This type of filter acts as a biological or mechanical filter. For chemical filtration, you can mix activated charcoal with the gravel. Regular cleaning of this type of filter isn't required. Simply vacuum the gravel periodically. You may clean the filter when it is time to replace the carbon. Cleaning this type of filter requires you to drain the entire tank, take up, dismantle and clean the filter parts and replace the gravel.
- For this type of filter, you will need a plastic 1- or 2-liter soda bottle, a plastic ice cream container, an air line, an air pump, aquarium gravel and activated charcoal. To build the filter, cut the soda bottle in half and scallop the rough edge of the top half of the bottle. Run the air line into the bottom of the plastic bottle and set into the ice cream container with the plastic bottle bottom side down. Attach the air hose to the air pump. Then fill the container and surround the bottle with gravel and carbon. You can hide the neck of the bottle with aquarium decorations including plastic rocks or plants.
- When the aquarium is full, the air hose releases air to bubble up to the surface. As the air bubbles rise, they draw water through the soda bottle and the surrounding gravel. Impurities in the water are trapped by the gravel and filtered out of the aquarium.
