Okay, I had a bit of time to get things published and here are some photos!!

Sue talking about Aeration!!



Here is a picture of the ECO 7 in open flow.



And it pushes out about 6CFM with open flow.



The highest pressure we cold get from the ECO 7 is just over 2PSIG, and at that pressure, the pump was unable to move air.



And with that pressure, it could not push air to a Vertex diffuser at 10 feet.



The Eco 7 at just under 2 PSIG could push some air to a Vertex diffuser at three feet under the surface.



Expect to see a Video soon that tells the rest of the story!!

Now for some fun photos!!

Here we see Ted and Tony laughing so hard they could not stand up!!



And here we see Tony's LMB!! I believe it was the daily record!!

I'm so glad y'all had as much fun as I did!

I was really honored to get to meet Bob-O! He's a great guy just as I expected. smile

I was also really happy to get to spend more time with my buddy, Tony. That's why I came. These people make up the core of what makes Pond Boss so special.

Of course, the professionals like Sue Cruz, Bill Cody, and Cecil Baird are awesome to listen to. I'd drive or fly a very long distance to get that kind of information!

Just a really good experience overall. We all owe Scott a debt of gratitude for going to the time and expense of hosting this.

Here's that picture of Sue.

Sshhh....if they see the photo of me holding the LMB over at BBG I'll never live it down! grin

Just an awesome time, and got to hang out with lots of really great people. I'm glad you came Bruce, you always give me reason to think, and your work has been an inspiration to me, as well as many others I'm sure. I look forward to the next time we meet.

I'll say it again....if someone gets the chance to attend a PB function, make every attempt to do so. What you come away with will amount to much more than you can imagine.

Till next time!

And we surmise that: BG(>)HBG(F1) while GSF(<)HBG(F1)
Would it hold true that: HBG(F1)(+)AM500(x)q.d.(=)1.5lbGRWT?
PB answer: It depends.

I must admit, Bob-O, that I have not yet endeavored to read your stream of consciousness posting due to my pending need for bifocals. Ever heard of a paragraph?? (Freak!)

Well I see where this is going but isn't it amazing that some guys are using this system as deep as 12 feet? (Read Below) Wow! I have no vested interest in this pump. I just made a DIY system that seems to work for me for 4 years now and no fish kills. Im just saying.....

This is from road joker below a while back.

Well dock is in so I figured might as well get the aerator out of the cabin and into the lake to free up some space. RC51 the system worked great in 15 fo0t of water but i have it off the bottom about 3 feet so im only in 12 foot of water.

Awesome vid, after watching I think I want Ted too te-evaluate my system even though he and Bill helped me design it I'd like to know the specs and turnover rate I'm getting..


I believe in catch and release. I catch then release to the grease..

Scott,

Nice Job! I am just getting around to checking this thread out. It was a great time and it was fun to see everyone again. I haven't been on here much lately. Need to make more time to stop and smell the pond scum laugh

Here is my air station at 8 feet with 3 fusers?? Could someone please tell me how I am doing this with 2 psi? It is what it is. I never told anyone to use my system I posted pictures out here because it worked so well for me. (I am now starting to wonder if that was a mistake) frown

RC, no one is attacking you or your system. If you have data from your system that shows your pressures, that might help.

I just want everyone to know the facts. Take it for what ever you want, I have no financial interest in this at all. I am not using your system because I have 32 feet of water in the deep end and I talked to experts. I do applaud your DIY spirit, heck I have it too incase you have not noticed.

This is about data. Period. Show us yours and we might learn. But ours was gathered using a strict scientific method.

Calling Condello an "angry Pez dispenser" is pure genius.

Hmmm no pipe dope or band/clamp on the hose and barb fitting?? The guage is in x1000 increments smile

RC no need to worry man your system works great obviously there's differences between your system and the test.. Who knows what but there's obviously differences..

I wish I could join in on the laughs, but apparently I'm too slow to get the joke.

When I think of a Pez dispenser I think of a piece of junk plastic with a big oversized caricature head that spits out something that has no substance.....Oh, crap...I think I get it now.
