Ok so all you need is:
- water filter housing 10 inch(in that example I've bought one from ebay (it was bargain price), but is standard RS part link and anyway it could be any of the enclosure available on the market.
- one straight trough connector 15mm pipe,
- one equal 15mm tee connector,
- 15mm pipe (unfortunately I had to buy 2m long pipe),
- hose clips
Also you'll need silicone sealant, saw (to cut pipes), small diameter pipe for CO2 inlet, a handful of bioballs (idea: I got my from filter, and replace by pieces of foam or replace completely medium to foam/) bioballs completely by foam/ceramic/**etc. (alternatively you don't have to use bioballs at all)

I think this is the link to the filter housing now. RS Seem to have changed it.
