Active Aqua Root Spa 5 gal Bucket System

Run a Single-Bucket Deep Water Culture Setup

The Active Aqua Root Spa 5-gallon single-bucket system is a deep water culture setup built around one 5-gallon bucket, with a watertight seal and an 8-inch bucket basket to hold growing medium.

A dedicated air pump oxygenates the nutrient solution without a separate air stone, while grommet and elbow fittings plus black tubing keep the system connected and light-sealed.
