Very cool I like the guts n bolts views , all that tubing, with ebb n flow do you make the totes rock from one side to the other or am I getting things all co key up ?
I prefer the HDX boxes from home depotThinking about getting one of these for the resivoir. Do you guys think it will leak water around the wheel?

So here is a little update.
EcoPlus Ebb & Flow brand on Amazon is total crap. After pulling out, redoing the hole, smoothing the joints, testing it in the tub for a leak, putting it all back, and after all that it still leaked a little bit from the 1/2 inch inlet and a lot from the 3/4 inch outlet.
The outlet is over the reservoir so not critical, but I really want this to just not leak at all so I am not reliant on that reservoir positioning. The 1/2 inch dripping is unacceptable, even if it's only like 1 drop every min as that goes right onto the floor.
While I was getting more Hydroton I picked up a new ebb and flow drain kit. This one looks the exact same as the Botanicare ones which have worked spotlessly for me. It cost like CAD 6$ compared to 25-30 on Amazon so yeah...
I took the two right-hand ones all the way out of the room again. Emptied it out, expanded the hole, installed the new ebb and flow kit, and put it all back.
Hallelujah, no leaks at all. Not even from the 3/4 inch outlet.
I also got my new lights from Yuanhui. Put one in this room for now.
Next issue to address, with the higher Hydroton level, and 4 inch height on the outflow now, I can hardly fill all 4 totes before the reservoir gets too low.
Time to shop for a new bigger reservoir.
