Hi Mr.Paul ,I have watched many many TH-cams ---Your's the Best ---God Bless America
namaste --Hare Krishna blessings
Wow, thank you
Thank you so much , I followed your instructions and succeeded.
from Egypt thank you again.
That is AWESOME! Thank you for sharing that!
Thx paul for your time explaining.
I love your youtube videos and your mission. Keep up the great work!
Hi Shawn, Thank you for the good video. It really explained the bell siphon well, and gives good tips for me to use on my system. My drain pipe was too large and I was not getting good siphon action, sometime it would work well, then it would just stop working. I work in Thailand, so somethings are harder to find here also.
Who knew Kevin James knew so much about bell siphons? All kidding aside. Very informative video. I'm having trouble with my bell siphon and hopefully this will let me fix it.
LOL, never been compared to Kevin James. Hopefully, my video helps.
another very informative video by Shawn Paul....thanks for explaining this in detail, that was helpful to me as I'm just starting my system and I had no idea on the exact heights that were explained.

Thanks Jake, good to hear from you!
that was great! thank you 👍
Glad you liked it!
That was great! Thanks for the video. Only thing that could have helped my hands-on mind more is physically seeing the way you build it. I understand everything, except how to make the little cap thing at the end of the siphon hose (the thing that you say gets buoyant and stops the siphon). All the best to you.
Thank you. The cap is something you buy at the hardware store for PVC and flip it upside down
Thank you
You are welcome
Hai, I am from Kerala,India.one week before I made one bell syphen but that one not work properly(water didn't cut off)two days before I see your syphen method I put small air pipe inside the syphen now it work 100% properly
Thank you my friend
Thank you very much! I wish you the best!
bestexplination. ive watched about 6 vids on this and couldnt work it out. you should get the nobel prize for aquaponics
WOW! I take that as a great compliment! Thank you so much!
Yeah that was a good explanation. Seems the drop of 12" would be more important than the horizontal 12" and not losing "prime". The cap at the bottom would seem to be preventing air from getting sucked in while allowing water to flow and then siphon.
Great video! Just one question how does the cap float up and stop the siphon of the grow bed is filled with rocks?
Great question, there is a 4" sleeve around the entire bell siphon assembly to shield it from rocks. They won't be in that area.
Hi was trying to find the link to your book on aquaponics
www.morningstaraquaponics.com/
can you do something like this for an aquarium? i currently using a 20gal tank, with prob about 15gal of water. my grow bed container can hold 14gal and is 10.25 inches tall
how should I scale this down to fit my tank?
I'm sorry, not familiar with miniature aquaponic systems.
can i get this ebook and information in a USB and send it to my house??
When you order it, we will provide you a download link via your email. www.morningstaraquaponics.com
Hi Shawn, You said the water should drain in every 45 minutes. I just have one doubt. Doesst the grow bed enough time to absorb the fish waste in this much amount of time?
45 minutes is the standard. You don't want fish waste in your grow beds. Your system needs a swirl capture filter and bio filter. Your plants use nitrates, this is produced in the nitrification process.
Are you sure the cap becomes buoyant at the end and doesn't just cut the siphon off of the main tank? While this would yield the same result, I am curious to see how you saw this buoyant effect in your testing. (Very nice video)
Very confident, watched it work 100's times over. Thanks.
+Shawn Paul (MorningStarMissions) Thanks so much for the speedy reply, you make the best explained aquaponics videos I've seen yet! Keep it up!
45 minutes to fill and drain a grow bed? Is that specific for large grow beds? Or does that apply for small setups as well?
I have a 55 gallon fish tank and a 5 gallon grow bed filled with clay media.
3/4 inch standpipe with 1 inch bevel
2 inch bell siphon with snorkel
The grow bed fills in 2 min 30 seconds and drains in 40 seconds.
Should I be using a timer on my pump to reduce cycles?
Sorry, I work with large system 800 gallons or more.
@@thehealthawakening no worries, I ended up getting my answer in the end. Thanks for responding.
How we find total energy efficiency of Bell siphoning ?
Sorry, I don't understand your question.
@@thehealthawakening we know when we flus the toilet ,water jet formed with certain pressure which looked like very fast stream of water so it's seems that water overpowered atmospheric pressure more intensly
So it's seems that efficiency of Bell siphoning increases???
@@thehealthawakening what is bell siphon equation according to Bernoulli theorem?
@@thehealthawakening how much energy are collected by spring based barometer so it can move its needle
If you know about it then whole universe can make you most richest person ever
So 10 ^14 kg pressure give how much energy which can turn turbine by gears and we got free energy from atmospheric pressure
Doubling the size of the bell over the diameter of the stand pipe doesn’t make any sense.
I guess that's your opinion. My bell siphons don't have any issues in operation. It's the industry standard. Build them as you wish.
where is the mathematically proved equation about bell siphon,😈😇
LOL, in your dreams! Just joking, but anyhow, none here. It's to simple and doesn't require it.
@@thehealthawakening it's required because i want to run turbine with help of atmospheric pressure, bell siphon are cumulatively more powerful modal then siphon💪💪💪
