Okay gang, I just ordered the $40 Gast Pump. Thanks for all the advice on that. Now I need to figure the best tubing and diffuser system to use.
My pump has a 1/8" female NPT output port. Does this mean I would need to use 1/8" tubing? Wood recommended using 3/4" tubing, would I need to increase the hose size from the port? I'm not sure where to look for these attachments.... would the hardware store have everything else I need if I just ordered 3/4" tubing?
Also, on the soaker hose, I have some. How long of a section should I cut? What about coiling it in a plastic bucket, filling the bottom with gravel, and sinking it to the bottom? Or, would it be best to but one of those fancy diffusers?
Thoughts and opinions are most welcome as I am a complete aeration newbie. Thanks!
