RE: FRY FLOW-THROUGH RATES
Hi Mike
You can get some nice valves a Jehmco.com. Or at your local hardware store,
there is a black miniball valve sold by rain bird or rain drip for drip
irrigation. It has fine control and can be easily adjusted. They usually
cost about $5 for a pack of 10. You can get the exact same valve in Aquatic
Ecosystems, pet warehouse and others for twice the price and more.
If you can not find them at the hardware store look to local irrigation
supply houses. They are made for commercial use and will last for ever.
They may plug up a bit when bacteria grows in them but opening and closing
them should clear them.
Good Luck
David

><{{{>Hi,
><{{{>Anyone have a suggestion on flow rate [GPH] or turnover rate
><{{{>for the fry
><{{{>flow-through systems that have been talked about here
><{{{>recently and which was
><{{{>the subject of a talk at the last Convention?
><{{{>I am considering building such a system and ran across plastic,
><{{{>micro-control valves that state 2 GPH max. This doesn't
><{{{>sound like enough
><{{{>flow, but no pressure was stated for this 2 GPH rate either.
><{{{>Come to think
><{{{>of it, I could use some suggestions on very small water
><{{{>control valves for
><{{{>this type of setup. I am thinking of using 5-8G pan-type containers.
><{{{>Thanks for any suggestions.
