Summary
This is a work in progress. I'm still testing v1.
Starting my aquaponics system
Extra parts
1 1/2 inch PVC pipe
1 1/2 inch PVC tees (one for each tower).
Water Pump (I used this one https://amzn.to/3fmHjBj)
5/8" drip line (https://amzn.to/3a0cq4s)
1/4" drip tube (https://amzn.to/33y3yC3)
1/4" drip barbed connectors (https://amzn.to/31pNNdJ)
Paracord or other twine. (https://amzn.to/31pNNdJ)
Materials to build a frame. I used 2x4's and 2x3's.
My "fish tank" is a Sterilite 56 quart tote, I'm watching craigslist for a free fish tank.
I have the fish tank flowing into a bucket turned filter canister
The filter flows into a reservoir tank where the pump pushes the water back to the top.
Update 8/3/2020
Updated cap (diffuser) design to have more and bigger holes after observing just a couple days of fish waste solids blocking the holes in the original.

Notes:
3 walls so all paths are circular rather than lines or zigzags vastly increases the print quality and reduces print time. Can also print faster as most lines are smooth circles.
