Well here it is... build your own algae bio reactor

Now that Scientists have Confirmed 'Algae Is the Most Effective Alternative Energy Source'...  Simple photo bio Reactor Jared Bouck shows us 'How to build your own algae reactors'
with a simple example of a bio reactor using simple off the shelf parts and aquarium parts available from nearly any big chain store to make a simple reactor on the cheap. This is the most basic algae reactor design overall and while he used some glass containers for my reactor other ideal containers would be an empty 2 leader bottle or plastic milk jug. This design is really perfect for backup cultures or to keep unique strings of algae's to start larger reactors off. Using simple off the shelf parts and aquarium parts available from nearly any big chain store these days you can make this simple reactor on the cheap.
