Auto water changes vS. drip systems

Yep its DIY. Check out that link below, first post, third picture that is the overflow. I will get some pics tonight of it setup and in action. The pump is a Rio 26HF pushing 1500 at 0' head, The companies chart says 1040gph at 6', I'd say that is pretty accurate.

Finally got the auto drip up. It ran through the night and is still going strong. I picked up some 3/8" ID polyethylene tubing and it works like a charm, constant trickle out into the garden. I'm going to chock that up as a win!

I remember that post! Your effn DYI overflow box looks better than mine and it retails for like $180...ha!

I would be interested in seeing this thing in action... I love DYI projects especially when they turn out as good as or better than manufacture designs.
 
haha thanks man! First time messing with polycarbonate and it wasn't too bad. I will throw a video up tonight of it in action, I think its pretty sweet! Only downfall with the way I have it setup makes it loud but the tanks are in the garage so I'm not too concerned! Oh, and the fish are super happy so thats all that really matters!
 
Here's a quick vid of the system running.
