Did you read the reviews at the Lowes web site about this float switch? People gave it bad reviews because it stuck on and burned out the pumps......

I did not read the reviews thanks for the insight I may have to look into one from another company
 
This really is awesome.
 
Nice job. I do recommend having a spare solenoid valve around. Depending on your water chemistry, they can stick. Mine never stuck, but for $12, you can't beat having a spare.

Great job!


To add, the benefit of having a water change in lieu of a drip system is that rainy season idea that will help encourage breeding and simulate the natural environment a bit more.
 
exactly a system i will be incorporating into my future build..
At first i'll probably just set it up as a manual system where i'll have to flip the valve to empty and then run the water to fill it back up.. but i will investigate the automatic part of it..
 
Nice setup. Thats going right at the top of my "someday" list.
