Is this the one I pointed out on Amazon or was that not you i was talking to about this?
Hmm
Not sure
I did post it to the start of the new grow toy thread
I got it from overstock cause they're dumb enough to give me credit, but if you use retailmenot.com coupon for overstock it comes out to about the same price as amazon, you just have to wait for it longer

im thinking of just emptying the water and gluing that fucker down so it can't move...Any other or better ideaS??
That's what I have to do with some of my air stones, I have a couple of these & the suction cups last about 10 seconds. They degrade & no longer work, almost instantly it seems. So I blob some silicone under them, it's the only thing that will keep it down.

On a side note, I have a couple of these

& they are the bee's knees. It doesn't simply rely on breaking the surface tension, it actually is infusing the water with air because the bubbles are so tiny.

I still run air stones in the buckets, because you can never have to much oxygen in the water in my opinion. I've been using these because they are cheap

But they are really poor quality. Pull them too hard they snap in half. Disconnect it & half the time it just pulls the connection off the air stone. I know, I know... you get what you pay for, but sometimes people stumble upon something good...just checking?

I've not used them, but form the look of it, much like ebay, it seems the service all depends on the seller...
not sure how the site manages all that on their end...

So I forget who all said they had the cloner the "Clone King" but I just got mine a few days ago and am running into 1 issue. Pretty much anybody that uses an underwater water pump could prolly help...So you gotta connect the piece of fabricated plastic that holds all the spray jet heads to the water pump which is under roughly 1 or 1.5 gallons of water. Now the pump has those suction cup things to make it stick to the bottom of the clone, my problem is that every time i lift up the top to check out whats going on i see that the pump has slid around and is usually sitting like tipped over making the water just spray in one corner. I keep un plugging it and re setting the suction cups then sliding the pump back on the cup thingies but 30 mins later its back moved around and tipped over...Anybody got any suggestions on what I should do?? It's frustrating my so much im thinking of just emptying the water and gluing that fucker down so it can't move...Any other or better ideaS??

Mine hasn't moved since day 1. Did you slide the pump into the tabs on the piece that had the suction cups? There are 2 lil tabs on each side of that black piece that holds it in place. If it's not locked into those it will move freely.

Do not glue it down incase you want to clean it it some day.

Platinum p600 on veg = 185W and a 600W tube on 50%. I'm using the metal halide from apollo that came with it but I'll be buying a hortilux hps when flower time happens. lol
once I push my bloom button it doubles up to 350W

Now I'm confused...is it that the suction cups won't hold? Or that the pump won't stay in the stand?

If it's the latter, it's like @BlackSheepOG said, the pumps have a sweet spot in the holder. The holder really only holds it from moving L or R. Forward & Back (at least all my pumps) is not a lot of pressure. So, if it's too far forward or backward, it won't hold it L or R either.

If it's like all the other pumps I've seen, a hose or a connection must be pushing it out of the sweet spot. Because if it's in the holder, it should stay. It sounds like a hose (maybe it's cold & inflexible) is moving it around on you.

yes i keep sliding it on but it doesnt really lock..it kinda does but very very lil force slides it right back off...i think maybe if i find i way to secure the suction clip part to the pump so it doesn't come loose id be good.....Do the suction cups work better if you try to stick them to the bottom before the water is in?

its kinda both...the cups are sliding around more then i like and the clip with the suction cups doesn't stay on the pump very well

i just re set it so in a lil while ill unplug it and take a pic so y'all can see what i mean...it seems to slide/fall into the saame position every time...

Yea it works better without water. If you can't get it man just message the company you got it from and they'll send yea a new one no prob. They are an awesome company. Gave me a new pump,new manifold and 200 neoprene collars.

how did you extract this? butane? how much product did yo run?

Everclear, it was a small run to test so I'd say like 9-10g tops in and like 1.4 back. Was just some trim. Thanks @GT21 for the tech man! From making to smoking in 3hrs, love it!!!
