Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

Hi Team,

Been actively (slowly actively) sourcing all the bits and pieces for when I get a week off over Christmas to get my Multi-IBC AP going.

Many members here suggest 90mm SLO, but my question is what is the best method to deliver from the SLO to 3-4 growbeds (gravity drain). I had anticipated using 25mm in the growbeds for water outlets (BYAP perimeter style); so is there plumbing avail that takes 90mm stormwater piping from my FT and 't' off to 25mm or what is the consesus (if there is one) on best practice?

Any help as always is appreciated.

P.S - I can run 90mm all the way as a manifold but just dont know how to go down to 25mm if that is the right thing to do.

Here in the U.S. you can get this sort of thing so I'm sure you have them there. I used a T and then there were inserts that fit into one arm of the T to reduce the opening to the correct size. I think they are called PVC reducer bushings.

hi madcap
my system has 50 ml slo down to 3 gb which turn into 25ml that i got from bunnings and i know you can get it from 90ml to 25ml cause i checked it out when i was there for my next system...

just go to bunnings and have a play with all the fittings to get it to what you want

cheers troy
