Please post pics or diagrams if you can -- I can tell more from that than from a verbal description.

How do you set up for the water to get from the pump to the top of the tower and how do you configure your spray bar or spray system? I have a ton of PVC pipe and PVC fittings at my disposal.

I'm going to use a couple of Rubbermaid "Brute" totes [for my QT system], and whenever I think I've come up with an idea, all I can think of is that the weight or "pull" from the hoses is going to topple my totes. Maybe it won't, but that's what I invision. These totes are soft, not hard plastic, and they "give."

Personally take a look on the net to see if there are any DIY ones , I know we had a guy on the forum a week or two back who made his out of drain pipe joints and bio balls
