    The problem with using an Aqualifter (though a very Silent option) is that it is only rated at 30", So I would need to use 2 or 3 of them to get the water from the other side of the room where it is located. Though definitely would make a great option if feasible.

    That rating is for 30” of head (vertical distance) not a 30” length. I have a brand new one you are welcome to test out if you’re interested.

    I had a few in my old tank that looked like that. I think they were called rainbow yumas?

    I think you are right. I’m going to let them grow out a bit and then I’ll hook you guys up if you are interested.

    The unit also come with extra propellers and bushings.  Do you also have any of them?  Either way,  I would be happy to pay shipping, or if it works - I work in Salem.  PayPal ok?

     

     

    Pretty sure it has the extras in the box, let me dig it all out of the garage and get back to you.

    its stupid easy. look at the picture.
    valves at each input side and output side.

    so i add RO to the left tank. then when i want to mix salt in the left tank i close the right input and output and leave the right valves open. therefore its just circulating the left side.

    add a crap load of salt more than the target amount. then open the right input valve to add more RO.

    when i have it where i want it i open the valve to the hose, take it over to the sump and add it in. the hose (3/4 food grade pvc) and barb fitting shut off valve for the hose can be purchased at the local hydroponic store.

    I may be wrong, but I’m fairly certain you don’t want to add a crapload of salt to your mix. Once your ca and alk are elevated to certain level it’s going to start precipitating  into an insoluble carbonate.
