was gonna try and come down this weekend , but looks like were tied up


You should learn how to untie yourself :flower:

chift :mrgreen:
bottom tank is like a sump.
Water pumps to the top of the first waterfall
and falls into the first FT.
A feed line goes to GB 1 in a group of 4 (gravity)
from the first FT.
Then cascades to the 4th GB, where it departs to the last tank.
The excess water over the waterfall to the 2nd FT.
The second group of 4 GBs are feed by gravety feedline from the 2nd FT.
cascading to the last GB and exiting to the last FT.

Total volume of the FTs is around 20000ltrs + 8 x 500ltr GBs

Boris :cheers: yes you are missing something.... several reds on the balcony :drunken:
