20L with ATS as only filter

[clay4au]

I got interested in an ATS last year so when petco had the $/gal I got 20L and hit the hardware store.

tank 20
shop light 7
pack of cfl 12
rubbermaid 15
PVC and parts ~8
plastic canvas 1
used an old table as the stand and had the extra rock, pump and main light
so I was able to get this totally set up for just over $60

The ATS has been the only filter ever on this tank. It took it while to get broke in but now it seems to be doing a great job.
here's a quick video tour.
