for the res get a water chiller, and your tank is going to stink. do your plants look good. wait untill your about to harvest. salt and roots and all kinda shit gets down there. just try to keep it clean.

you shouldent need your pump 2 weeks into flowering anyway. your fogger should be enough.is your ph right and you do use filtered water.
its sounds to me like you dont have a fogger.do ya ? well go get one and get some fog skirting all over your roots. 25$

I picked up 4 36w foggers for $45 AUS, 2 are going into a 4 or 6 plant setup made with an esky coolbox as the res and 150mm PVC tubing.

I ordered a waterproof fan and its going to be connected to a drip pipe that will suck the fog from the coolbox up the 2 ends of pipe and exhaust the excess centrally back into the res.

To chill your Res Tank, freeze a 2 liter with water and drop it in there. As for the 'Pump' that went out... What kind of pump? Air pump, Water Pump. if water pump, what is the water pumps purpose? Some poeple have them mist roots, some to circulate the water, some to drip... IF its a water pump.. what was its use?
