Having trouble getting that last bit of nute out of your tank? Does your pump not drain it all out? Is your drain tap too high? Sick of tilting your res?

If you're a nutriculture user of any kind (amazon, EF series, wilma, big NFT tanks etc) you probably have these probs.

Well...here's your answer! £15 at your local hardware store:

Worth every penny. If your res isn't raised up then you'll need to hand pump it to get the last out....really not bad. If you res is raised up, just pump until it flows and let gravity do the rest.

One of those things I need to add to the list of "things I wish I'd known earlier" :)
 
you can also get one that connects to a drill.

nice if ya have power tools
 
A water fill/drain kit works great as well..

I like a wet/dry shop vac, that will suck the well dry and then ya just dump it.
