Anyone Has DIY Bakki Shower diagram? Can't Post

Since I'll be starting my own pond soon, I've been doing a lot of reading about Bakki Shower. I've acknowledge about it's effectiveness and I hope that someone who has built one successfully could contribute a DIY diagram for me to share.

Will you be intending to either use the stainless steel tanks like the Momotaro Bakki Showers, Plastic Crates or Drum Barrels?

Do you wish to hid the unit?

I was thinking of using a 4 tier square planter box, with bioballs as the media. I have a limited space actually to hold barrels, and stainless steel cost too much for me.

Hi! Zaini,

You can follow this thread on home made bakki shower of Mr. HWONG. There are also some pictures on the planter box shower system submitted by our forum member CSLim.

4 tier square planter box would do but that is just a trickle tower and not a bakki shower, ie if you use bioballs as media. With strong flushes of water - it just won't work for bioballs.

Sob, sob... my bubble has burst!... and all this while, I thought that I have those black pseudo BH media balls happily community-showering in them perforated boxes masquerading as a bakki...sob and sob againBlushBlushBlush.
Oh, Roger, I may be off-track and completely wrong, but I do sense a hidden message somewhere; mmm, World War 4 commencing?
Take cover, folks!!!SlySly

It is my bekki which stacks of 9 levels with Bio Ball. It works very well with Nitrate reduce to 0.

Sorry for the late reply, its festive season here for Muslim and I'm quite occupied lately.

But thanks for the references, and same goes for everybody else for the sharing. Always welcome anybody else who got anymore references.

Thank you again.

Thanks Rogermoo for the information, but please do explain more of your theory because maybe I'm too mixed up. Too much reading I guess.

Need more info on:
1. Why it is a TT, not a bakki shower system?
2. The original Mamotaro uses Bacteria House, where can I get it in KL?
3. To reduce the flow rate, what ideal size of the holes should I drill?
