![]() I use just use a siphon with an irrigation valve to control the driprate. Took about 4 weeks to fully cycle then the nitrates dropped like a rock. I have this on my SW. For the hose going in and out, I drilled through the top then using a torch I warmed up the factory hose connections and sealed them off.

![]() Don't forget, for a drip rate you can always use irrigation drippers sold at Home Depot or Rona to name just two sources. You can get 1/2 gallon per hour, 1 Gph or 2 Gph drippers. I used them on a homemade Ca reactor and just made sure I changed them often. They're cheap so no big deal.
Doug PS I would think a Fluvel would be great as a housing for the coiled lines, input from the tank/sump and output into the sump at a controlled rate. Coils are supposed to be kept in the dark if I remember right so the fluvel would work well. |
