Beginner question. I want to connect 2 medium culture beds, with bell syphonds installed, into a series of deep water beds with rafts. How do i control the drainage from the dw beds? The bell syphon will allow flood and drain. I was going to attach a slow drainage at the bottom of the dw bed, with a wider emergency drainage nearer the top of the dw bed |

Just use a standpipe in the DWC beds, then the water will always be as high as the standpipe. As more water enters, it will overflow the top of the standpipe and drain. |

If the standpipe is removable it might make cleaning the DWC trough a bit easier |
