I had an idea to use some 5" PVC fence posts to make a drip system. I bought all the necessary items I think I need. I haven't figured out how I'm going to do the rez tank (and barely anything else). I have vinyl glue to seal the end caps and one end can be cut off slightly to let the water out. I was thinking of maybe letting the water pour (drip) directly into the res tank or maybe into a feed trough that goes into it. I think hooking up a hose would have the water standing too long and it would be better if it were in the res tank where lots of air would be getting mixed in it. I'd want to keep the water from as much light exposure as possible. The drippers I have are 1/2 gal/hr, 1 and 2 ghp also but I don't know which ones would be best. The manifold has 6 nipples; the pump is 396gpm; the air pump is a dandy. The net pots are 3.5". I didn't show the hydroton rocks. Obviously the drip tubing is held in place with masking tape which is only used for illustration purposes.
I would love to hear any ideas any of you may have about the design. I'll post pix of the design when I decide how I'm going to make it - when I finish it.
