gravel is fine as long as it is an inert compound......don't know anything more specific than that.....i use hydroton

I don't like the pump you have because I don't see any sort of prefilter on it.......tis good to have something filtering the intake of your pump in hydro.

If you haveen't stuck it up yer ass it's ok. if ya did clean it up 1st, then it'll be ok.
Sounds like he is just offering advice so you don't make the same mistake he did.....cleaning it must have been a real pain in the ass......ha :lol:

the fuck you talking about fool

nice reply, why are you on my thread?
maybe he is drunk and turned left at the Cumberland Farms instead of right.....I dunno??

anybody else :(
Just me I guess, sorry, hate it for you.....:leaf:

Depends on what your going to do with the pump and what GPH it has. As for the warning lable thingy, ignore that. You'll be fine pumping water with nutrients. I personally would not use aquarium gravel as it does not hold water, or air, like hydroton would.

384 u.s GPH pump,

thing is the connector is small at top, hook ups are shitty, looks like i need a tube tho cause it wont fit onto any pvc piping iv seen, i gotta hook them together i wanna use a hose 2 different size ends, cause it says half inch but i measure it to pvc and it doesnt look like half inch

im gona take the pz with me and get a tube, but shit i dont know which 1 , i got 1/2 pvc piping to go into rez(bin)

then choice is 1/2(13mm) it looks smaller than inside of pvc piping! output spot looks shitty!
