  3. Hi En Affnan
    I have been going through your blog and is quite interested in trying out aquaponics. I would like to try and build the single barrel gutter system that you talked about in the opening of this 31 Oct 2015 video. Can you please advise on the following:_
    a) what is the pump size requirement ( is it 1000l /hour?);
    b) the recommended siphon size (is it 20mm?).
    c) where can I buy a plastic barrell (I stay in Shah Alam but I can drive to Subang or KL).
    I think I can more or less figure-out the other things from your other postings and so I won't waste your time.
    Thanks and regards - Lok

    1. The pump size depending on Siphon.

      A. 15mm siphon will requires 500 lt/hr and a 20mm siphon 700 lt/hr. You could use a 1000 lt/hr pump but excess water need to be diverted. See "saddle valve" on how to do this cheaply.

      B. Recommended siphon for barrel is a 15mm with an outer strainer using 3" upvc. The same size strainer for the 20mm siphon. But not the strainer for the gutterbed. See my latest video on this.

      C. You can get the barrel from Sin Lee Enterprise in Kg Baru Subang. It is near Econsave Kg Baru Subang, Tel : +60378465136
