I built an elaborate system with an 18 gallon tote and pvc gravity feeding 10 chick nips and I also used ACV.
It wasn't 2 months in and it was growing black mold.....I still do not understand how you can have a system like that and not have mold.....the mold was growing in the pvc as well as the tote.....
The whole housing was sunlight proof.
I have instead opted for a easily cleaned system, but it sure was nice to be able to go out once a week and fill that tote.....
Point being that any set up needs to be easily broken down and cleaned......silicon and pvc just is not.
My 2 cents......if anyone has figured out how to do this without that problem, let me know please
