    Looks the nuts John. You love a home made shower as do I. Mine has served me well over the years.

    Will be swapping it out for a Bought one this weekend and moving the old one to the new grow on set up.

    I am good. Shooting yes got back into it, then the clay grounds closed. Been over to Chris a few times will be back this weekend.

    Bought a new shower I need to pick up. Also bought a goromo and ochiba lol. Brought the ochiba home. Will collect the goromo this weekend.

    Fish are all good thankfully. Sold the vr6 a sad day but wasn't using it. Freed up my garage where the new grow on pond is built.

    Hope you're doing well, the sanke is new too well over 70cm.

    Hello mate. Cheers for the kind words bud. Just realised I had the sanke when I was last on. So it's not new to you guys.

    The ochiba was an impulse. Went for food and couldn't leave it there for the price. Bought a goromo at the same time need to go and pic her up though. Left her with Chris.

    Hope all's well with you and the family.

    Hi,

    Please check the plastic used is safe for fish. Some leach styrenes which will lead to major problems.

    Cheers

    Gaz
    Hobby and business gone but when you’re hooked you’re hooked.

    Always happy to help!!

    Returns are three 1.5ins and spray bar 2ins reducing down to 1.5ins for the inlet.
    This is for my grow on so a smaller pump 10000 that's why the 1.5ins pipe.

    Lunch time now then plumb it in for a test run
    Looking fantastic John...........you've got me thinking I could maybe make one of these. Im looking forward to seeing the finished product
