Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

Well after plumbing up the new gb with joel's delivery system i've found out that the pump i've got is too small.
It cope's, but only just and wanted to drop it to the bottom of the tank as well, therefore increasing the head.
Think i'm gonna have to buy a new pump and just use the one i've got as a backup.
Maybe i'll connect that one to battery backup for when the power goes out and use it for aeration as well as pumping the gb's.
Any suggestions on pump type?
Was thinking of a float type and still have it connected to a timer as well.
Or one with a 40mm inlet and preferably 20mm outlet, but has to be able to be submersed to bout 1.5m ish.

Cheers
Jono
