I use half inch elbow fittings in the tub lids, do they don't fall thru. Half inch flexible tubing from there to a one inch connector with 'funnypipe' tee. So the whole manifold is made from the same 1" tubing the rest of my RDWC system is, for fewer parts.So from what I've been reading it sounds like flooming and waterfalls are used a lot for aeration in hydro. What size of line do you have the water dropping into the bucket with? I'm trying to get an idea on how much water I should have dropping in and to see if I possibly need a larger pump? Also, how does this type of aeration work in a sealed co2 enriched room? I'm know your roots don't use co2, they need o2 so in that type of room would this be a problem? With air stones and an air pump I would run the pump in a separate room that isn't co2 enriched and plumb the airlines in to the buckets in the enriched room.
When I said I simplified the Fuck out of everything, this is a prime example; No air pump, No stones, No stupid lines to trip over, pop out and whatnot. A few bux worth of sprinkler parts and the whole air system is a thing of the past.
