This is my machine!
Sorry about the lighting, that damn environlight is bright!!
I painted most of the parts, but it needs a lil touchup because I fucked it up a little while assembling
specs are its a 400gph pump pushing through a 1/2" feedline and out a 1" solid piped pvc drain that falls into the lower res...
the bottom res is about 18 gallons and the top is about 10
with the pump off it drains enough that I could move the top root zone (bin) IF I realy had to, it holds about 5 gallons below the intake (I figure if I ever lose power I would rather the root zone drain to below the plants baskets so they dont drown and I could add a battery powered air pump (bubbler) IF I had too...
It's got a shitload of lavarock in the bottom of the root zone and the 4" baskets sit snug into the top with the bottoms about 3/4" into the solution
That should be enough no?
"to do's" I have remaining are I need a float rod to see the res full- needs to be filled lines, will use a dowel and a pvc pipe to float it in, the drain needs paint, and it has no nutes in it yet
