This is one of my major projects. Thinking of doing this in my kitchen. Verse 1 barrel in garage other in kitchen. I think side by side like yours seems more practical and clean apperance after install. Opposed to having hosing running through the middle of the house.

I really don't want to have to move that big of a tank when BART pulls eminent domain on my house.

Everything is doing really well. I keep having to turn the CARx up to keep up with my increasing alk demand. Good thing I'm only running at 9% of capacity on the Dastaco.

Everything's doing great other than the motor for The Plank. It feels like one of the reduction gears jammed in it the second day I had it. I'm waiting for a return envelope so I can mail it back.

Just modified my lid with a 3d printed feeding port so I can now run the Plank. Kinda excited about this.

How do you like this feeder? I randomly stumbled on it yesterday and I was actually thinking of getting one of these possibly down the line. Especially incase I had to go out for the weekend or something.

I really like it. It took me about 3 weeks to get it going though. Mine was pretty defective from the get go but avast marine was super responsive to my issues. Now that it's working it's great.

May I know where did you get these rocks? I got some online but they are far too big for my tank...
