Take a look at AquaRain water filters,expensive but very effective.The ceramic filters they use get everything down to about 1 micron.

See post #31.

Food grade buckets free at the bakery or restraunt. $5 spigot. Doulton or Aquacera ceramic candles are $20 - $40 a piece, depending on the grade and quantity.

1 candle gives me 5+ gals a day.

Low maintenance, more dependable than biosand and you can put one together for less than $30.
