Couple pics of my coco DTW
-1g trade pots (.66g) on 2" riser's
-shutoffs to limit flow if needed or shutoff completely
-1/4 drip line homeade halo with 4 drip holes
-1/2 black vinyl tubing for manifold
-1/4 black air line from manifold to halo (more flexible)
-100gph pump cycling 2x/day for 2 minutes each (16oz of feed per cycle)
-2 airstones in 5g rez bucket, only on when pump cycles to keep rez from stagnating

that looks awesome! Question for you. The black T looking thing that connects the black line to the drip halo. What is it and can I see a pic, and where did you get it!?

I love that halo. That is what I need I may need to steal your design. My only issue right now is the dripper dripping in one spot

home depot
there like 2.00 for like 20

I used to do the halo thing as well
then I keep slowly backing away and getting simpler and simpler

minerals would build up on the hols and begin to clog
I realized I got 9 halos already :) and that is what i been using all this time lol
I think once they have filled the pot simple is better..
I hate having to dig them out and clean them every week,
and a lot of times i didnt,
but mine never clogged...
