This thread is incredible with all the ingenuity! A huge thumbsup on what you've accomplished so far.
So the pump and its parts cost almost $1000, but only uses 80w of power at best? Looks like if it will last for years, you'll get your savings in energy consumption. That is a massive step in the right direction.
How your lights pivot is really nice, but I think I liked your closed loop intake screen the best.
I was worried about your stand until I saw the inner stand that supported the plywood top. I thought downward pressure would easily overcome those 60 screws. You did a great job designing this system. And your IR camera shots make me want one now. Thanks for that.
