would u be able to help me figure out what is wrong with my mistking set up?
i could take a quick video of how i got it connected if it could give u a better idea.
.....
i have a bucket (resivoir) and outside of it a small 3 inch tube piece coming out of it, then i connected that to that "blue colored switch for turning the water down/up"...
out of that there is about a 3 foot tube going to my first cage. it goes upward.
after that first cage, the tubing is connected along 3 other cages across to the left.
then directly across infront of that 4 th cage on the left, it connects to the 5th cage
that connects to 3 others to the right.
i took those black clips off to plug in the tubing as far as it will go, then i replace the black clip to secure it? does this secure it enough???
(every once in a while one of the tubes will get loose and water will run out! leaking and making puddles galore! LOL)
it isnt just one tube, it can happen to all of them. none of them are favored.
i have the tubes tied to the screen (with metal wire) (on top of the cage) to secure it better.
if i dont have the tubes tied with metal wire to the screen, the tube vibrates like an earthquake and is more likely to get one of the tubes loose and then the leaking begins!
i do not use those metalic like plates, (shaped like hmm.. half an octogon???) they're used to secure the knozzle piece itself... I couldnt find a way to actually make use of it...and the reflection of it made two of my males really angry seeing their reflection!
note: i peeled the tan colored piece of fabric off of it before i even thought if i should have left it on! although i still think you're supposed to remove it....
there are a bunch of these L shaped connecters? it looks like you're supposed to connect them to the knozzle itself???
do any of you have any pictures of ur set-ups? i use the zip/drip system.
i cant find the booklet! if i had it i wouldnt be asking all of you for ur help... thanks in advance!
any close-up pix of ur knozzles and how theyre placed on the cage and what keeps them from vibrating a lot would help a bunch!
