Andrew. Look great! wildstang- it looks like he's using 1/2 " poly pipe to each bucket, which I assume drain back to the sump. It looks like he had multiple ball valves, so just diverts some water to the "bucket run". An interesting idea.

With the dutchbuckets i am running 25mm flexi pipe from the pump then have a 25mm to 13mm poly reducer (http://www.bunnings.com.au/pope-25mm-x- ... b_p3126463) to run the dutch bucket system. I have valves on each row so i can adjust flow or turn off if i need to move them around.

With the output drain from dutchbucket i have used 15mm pipe with uniseals (probably could use tophat grommets - cheaper) which then go into 50mm pipe which flows back to the sump.

I have attached some pics.. I learnt how to build the system from Brock Hughes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OBHYikE ... Qb6FPZclxX
