I'm trying to head out to B to buy my plumbing bits, but I can't find any specific list of components needed to build a SLO for an IBC. Either 90mm or 100mm or whatever works well. Been searching the forum for about 15 minutes Please help |

Are you going to go through the wall of the IBC, or going to utilise the valve already in the base? If utilising the valve for an "external SLO" : http://www.backyardaquaponics.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=207723#p207723 and the parts not commonly available at "B". |

cheers, they didn't have anything I could use to make the bulkhead fitting so I'll have to go to a different shop for it. Bought everything for a test affnan siphon so I'll cut an IBC growbed tomorrow and try making one. |

the main thing I'm missing is the bulkhead fitting. I went in again but they just don't have anything like it. I will try an alternative which is using a silicone gasket type sleeve and just forcing it through a 90mm hole. |
