I have had great trouble finding the 1" to 2" adapter that goes on the standpipe. My grow bed is only 33L. Should I try and go smaller? Do you have any suggestions on where I can find the adapter?Clinthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07674873926038107413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1845435143113442988.post-38123605385909551922010-03-08T10:01:15.701+08:002010-03-08T10:01:15.701+08:00@Mr.

I have two 250 gallon fish tanks feeding a dozen grow beds, and have a 55 gallon bio-filter to help balance the system until additional grow beds can be added.<br /><br />One observation, it would be very helpful when discussing pump capacity, to use flow rates (i.e. liters/gallons per minute/hour) instead of watts. It has been my experience that some pumps have a higher wattage rating and a low flow rate due to the pumps inefficiencies. <br /><br />Thanks for the information and keep up the great work.Mr. Placehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12866528158747487270noreply@blogger.com
