I built a 3" fluid bed but am having problems with air flow. What size aquarium pump is everyone using? Thanks for the help!

I'm not sure which size pump I have but it has 2 connections on the pump and I teed the hose before going into the fluid bed. It works fine on a 2" bed but doesn't do much on the 3". #87

I get a lot of PM's without e-mail addresses, and then I have to PM back, and guys don't PM me back right away, so PM tag occurs...........Take Care.......Cadman cadnan i would love to see your specs on fluid beds if you would be so kind send to basskat55@netzero.com #89

Another new guy here. What a great site.
I've already been enlightened on the topic of fluid beds from this post but I have a newby question if it's Ok? I'm interested in making a fluid bed to powder paint some jigs bodies up to 2 ounces for Lake Trout jigging. These jig bodies are up to 2 1/2 inches in length, just long slender trolling sinkers. Do I use a 3" cup and try to lay these long bodies down in the powder or should I make a taller/smaller diameter cup and put them in verticle? Also, cadman I'd like to join all the others in requesting a copy of your information on fluid beds. I've seen several ideas on making them but it appears that your's is time proven so if it's not out of line for a newby I'd sure appreciate you sending me your information. My Email is nwringneck@comcast.net Thanks in advance for any and all help. BradF Edited by BradF, 23 January 2010 - 02:05 PM. #91

One other thing in mixing powder paints. No matter what colors you mix you will never get a true pigment (ie blue and yellow = green). You will get a shade of green, but in order to lets say have a solid green pumpkin, you have to have the powder pigment made. Edited by cadman, 25 January 2010 - 08:43 AM. #95
