Carbrooksilkies 2 ibc systems

Be careful! Those auto siphons will put in a hypnotic trance. Don’t look directly into them.

ok Revised system set up is now with :
1 IBC fishtank - with 40 SP small + 1 20cm & 12 Goldfish
2 IBC cut down as growbeds and sumps - with 100+ redclaw

Planning on adding 3 more IBC's as fishtanks to be joined via 90mm pvc at top height to stabilise water and have a single joined system. Then will have 2 half cut barrels on the top of each tank running back into each tank.

Will also have to sort out decent drain systems from the ibcs to the other 2 sump and grow beds as the 25mm piping is problematic with kids climbing tanks to feed crayfish and pick veges. Have had a couple of incidents where piping has come loose or out, but pump has a float and tanks are joined at high levels fo no losses or complete drain outs so at least some of the system design concepts have worked.

oops wanted to add GB2 & the sump to sump joiners - over flow (a set up that i presently hate as it clogs with val that i have in the tanks for the crayfish to munch on and i need to replace in the future.)

Looking good, sir! It is coming along nicely.
