Update: Jan 09
Have scored a 3000-4000l rainwater tank and am going to integrate it into my system. I am hoping to house the fish in this tank and the visibility in the IBC pod is poor.
I have also included pics of my current levels, plants in the gb's and yabs in the tubs.

That pump will probably not be working all that efficiently in such a low level of water.

The pump is just a system design fault. The bathtubs cannot hold the full amount of water that the system needs.

Hence the new tank :)

What sort of fish load do you have at the moment B? I'd be worried about adding more fish with those nitrate levels.

Okay, I have the new rainwater tank up and running. These are the levels as of today. I have 10 carp and 4 yabbies in there also. Do these levels look good? If not, suggestions?
It is 42 degrees(c) here today - bloody HOT!

I have had so much trouble trying to buy a solar powered pump locally. I know I can get one off ebay easy, but trying to shop LoKal......
