Step 4Adding the Recycled Water Bottles
The water Bottles Now Need to be Trimmed and Attached to the Reactor.
First Drill a Hole In the center of the bottle caps to fit the air hose you are using. Next feed the hose from the reactor through the bottle cap, and attach an airstone to the end. Next add a little hot glue or aquarium sealant to the interior of the cap and pull the air stone so that its bottom is at the bottom of the cap's interior (see image)
Next test fit the Bottles. Attach the caps to the bottle and place it in the reactor, mark with tape where the bottle meets the top of the reactor's Central Support Structure. Then, using a band saw or similar method, remove the bottoms of the water bottles.
As Stated Earlier, these designs are for the SmartWater, 1 Liter bottles, since thats what i was able to find in the garbage, If you are using a different bottle, you may need to alter the design to fit.
