Just the nipples. I have a recirculating system set up but the cheap nipples I'm using are wasting roughly 7 gallons a day from leakage. I get them fixed and they leak again as soon as I turn my back.

Man that sounds rough!
I have had them clog just a few times in the 2 years I've had them and not had to replace them. I would recommend putting some sort of filter on the system so it doesn't clog though. I am planning on using this one.

Excellent idea!

I am about to make a massive system for 18 cages. Not as fancy as yours though LOL!
Believe me, mine's not fancy at all. I have a 50 gallon drum with tubes coming out and a pond pump inside.
I only have 7 cages on it.

Sounds like you've got room for a lot more cages.Believe me, mine's not fancy at all. I have a 50 gallon drum with tubes coming out and a pond pump inside.

It was on a 5 gallon bucket but kept leaking and I almost burned out my pump so the short term solution was to get a bigger bucket!Sounds like you've got room for a lot more cages.
