Hi everyone. I'm in the process of designing a rdwc system. I'll be doing it in stages due to financial restraint. The plan is to start with a small dwc system and over the next few weeks-month build it out to its final design. Currently I have a couple of air pumps from some aquariums that are no longer being used. My question is: could someone please tell me what the acceptable range would be for pump sizing? The system will start out with 4 or 5 5 gallon buckets. Eventually I will add the recirculating parts and additional sites. When the time comes I will be getting a new air pump. For now I'm looking for the range that is required for say every 5 gallons or per gallon and I'll math it out from there. Thanks
