would the filter with the horizontal chambers be considered a sump filter?
would the vertical filter also be a sump ? or does it need to be submerged?

I don't know how many times I've thought of doing something like your trickle filter. The only thing that stops me is that I know my power goes off at the drop of a hat and if it stayed off I might have a floor full of water.
But I really do like yours. How well does it work?

There is a really neat one somebody posted a link to a while back - you can keep fry in it and stuff - it's made out of a mayonnaise jar or something similar. Perhaps some helpful soul will repost the link.
This thread is long and documents the many design changes this guy went through.

Creative. Inventive. Inexpensive. I like it!

Properly constructed DIY will not flood the floor when the power goes out. See this thread,
http://forum.nanfa.o...?showtopic=2720 , where Dan discusses how he constructed a "no flood" PVC overflow.
