My experimental nyc-desiel grow

Hello and Welcome to my 2nd experimental Grow "yes
that's right it is my 2nd grow" I have combined two
systems into one. 1st system is Current cultures
undercurrent system,2nd system is General Hydroponics
waterfarm. I will be constructing the system myself 1st
I bought #2 1000watt switchable ballast one with a 8"
glass tube and the other is a 6" in/outtake hood beveled
glass I have One light attached to a Light rail
intelldrive 3.5 The other to a 2nd carrier/rail and I
attached them both with an 3/8" all thread rod (48 hour
Tested and works very well) I had 4 twin bulb T-8
laying around so I added them too.. I'm using #7
18gallon tote's as my grow buckets and res. 2 air
stones per 18gallon bucket and 3 in the res. #4 "bad
ass" air pumps pushing 15 air stones. I then Cut to fit
2 holes in the lids of the 18gallon totes to fit 6" net
pots then cut a hole in bottom of net pot to fit the
waterfarm drip ring contraption (worked out really well)
I connected the totes with 2" PVC and homemade
bulkheads. DIY link
(http://www.reefsanctuary.com/forums/diy/27512-diy-
bulkhead.html) I Then wrapped the 18Gallons in
fiberglass insulation to keep the nutrients cold covered
the lids with black plastic(very dark inside) connected
my 1/2HP nutrient watercooler and my 265gph water pump
along with a 6000BTU window AC unit. I will be using
Ionic nutrients. I have added a youtube link to a video I made

Was going to wait till Sunday to clean the reservoir but was looking at it last night and noticed that it had some soot in the bottom of the buckets from the hydroton Pellets so I completely cleaned the system last night started off with fresh 5.8 pH water with parts per million at 650[video=youtube;DDnJEbH5Rm8]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DDnJEbH5Rm8[/video]
