Betta Drip System


Here is my mini betta drip system. Took me 2.5 weeks to put it together. It started off with just buidling shelves for my betta beanie cases. This shelf is for my show bettas, and my breeders, so I feed them heavily on black worms, frozen blood worms, brine shrimp...so i needed daily water changes. One day, I said to myself, I'm tired of doing daily water changes and sometimes I can't due to schedule conflict. So I said, heck! I'm going to build a betta drip system. =) So, I based my design off my already made shelves. Started brainstorming, drawing some rough drafts, and just started building. I made a lot of changes from my original plan, but heck, I'm not an engineer. I just build things, and if I run into issues, I fix it or fabricate what I can to make it work. And this is what I came up with, and it works GREAT! Pump: Pond Master Mag Drive Pump 350 Max GPH Piping: 1/2 inch PVC Piping Return: Gutter Drains (Fabricated to work) Tank Used: 20L gallons I have 5 valves to control flow and adjust water flow. More updates to come later. Just gotta do some touch up work to it, and add a box filter to filter any debris, and add the finishing touch and then start drilling the beanie case over flows.
