Single Barrel set with mini #guttergrowbed that I started building last week completed below is the photo update of the final build.

Siphon installed a above, its the same 15 mm siphon that I was experimenting for the last 1 year or so which I can safely says its good.

Siphon close up.

Potted media in place for trial running.

Water inflow is a simple "T" with elbows on the end preventing it to slip and drop off. Water pump use here is Astro AS1000, which rated at 1000 Liter per hour with 1 m head.

The actual first flush of this setup, it works like a charm. The far end is water feed from pump using this style of coupling.

With instant plants from adjacent #guttergrowbed. This set I may use initially as a seed starter and once it has fully mature I will see what to do with it. One of the growbed I may not use pots, this is to test the siphon with full growbed setting.

Well see in few months how this small simple low cost unit function.

Total cost approximately RM 160.00 thats USD 38.00 inclusive hydroton and pots.

Since my backlane CRAFT set was completed last week, I can redo the front set into something smaller or repurpose it into a test bed.

I need to test further into possibility of mosquito breeding in my set, from initial trial it is not a problem. However it is good to be safe then sorry.

All plants removed and placed in a temporary tray.

Gutter all emptied and drained, Ill only use two leaving room on the rack to try out something else.

This FrankenRack need redo, few additional angle iron from the back lane project will be enough.

Water needs to be drain from the tank and fish safekeep into the round container in foreground.

Fast forward, after four hours the new set with two gutterbeds completed. Racking redo to make it more compact and stronger.

Each of this gutter require 500 Liter/hour pump before considering the height require. Actual inflow should be around 250 liter/hour the most. The two gutters add up to 1000 liter/hour, so a 1000 liter/hour pump is use. This pump consumes 14 watt of electricity for it operation per hour.

Siphon use existing unit, no issue there.

Completed set, netting in place to ensure fish contained inside since they like to jump whenever in new surrounding.

Ill use this set for few test, one test is to see how reliable the smaller pump is. Another is Strawberry, I can start planting it again in this setup. Previous trial was using traditional growbed.

So there goes, the front set.
