They make adapters specifically designed for this, lol. $14 on Amazon. Also, instead of necking it down to 5/8" or 3/4" hose, and instead used a 2" hose, your flow would be better.

Looks like a great solution!

9:46 water will always find equilibrium. That’s true and has nothing to do with gravity as most people beLIEve. It’s just density and air pressure.

Yup. It can be confusing but you’re exactly right

Flow rate looks very low. Have you reduced it too much or tightened the cap?

@DirtRoadLife1 4 месяца назад

Flow rate will be low with just a few feet of head difference. Could increase flow rate by increasing hose diameter

What is the pump that you used to suck water from pond?

Hi Janis, it’s a small Harbor Freight pump and I added a couple brass fittings and some PEX on each end. I believe it’s this pump www.google.com/shopping/product/8153480480989311844?q=harbor+freight+pump&client=safari&channel=iphone_bm&biw=390&bih=661&tbs=vw:l&prmd=sivn&prds=eto:17528357943023487440_0,cdl:1,prmr:1,rsk:PC_10294496237081598436,pid:230681046116264243,cs:1
