its a laguna maxflow. it runs a waterfall and 3 growbeds... about 3000l of pond water. I'm actually about to change my growbeds over to murrays 500l ones. currently they are big black tubs... I have a thread on here somewhere. i'll try and find it (edit, link in signature) |

Love the pond orcy looks great are those bunnings tubs? I have one of murrays beds they are good although I think my next one I setup I will change a few things, the beds have a depression which is an obvious alocation for a syphon although the only way I could get one to stop was either drill a higher whole for air the break or add a air tube break. |

hmm. ill see how murrays go. the bunnings tubs dont work the way i wanted, so it cant be any worse. I've always got a cold beer in the fridge if you ever want to see it in person... |

I bought an air pump from them which both diaphragms busted afte 4 weeks. You would expect diaphragms would last more than 4 weeks. They didn't want to know me. And that's from a shopfront purchase. Good luck getting any service from them since you are in Sydney. |
