This week in Practical Fishkeeping they have a story and a few videos about a truly amazing river tank.
Here's the link: http://www.practicalfishkeeping.co.uk/c ... p?sid=6109
Here's an additional youtube video link of their biotope tanks :

If you don't know know German, this would be a good time to learn. LOL.
This has given me some good ideas for a new clown loach river tank that I've already started building, which should be done by Spring. I'll probably start a new thread for that once I have some water in it.

Here's another video, but translated in English: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=edMFUA6iMtQ
In this video they explain that to get the unilateral flow, they have a double bottomed tank, where the water flows underneath the top-bottom, to the other side. That was actually one of Martin's ideas from years ago!
Water flow is 130,000 gallons per hour!
