Considering the cost and relative difficulty in setting up a lego-based
waterfall, it seems like a very silly idea. How about you just go along to
your local fish shop (the ones that sell live fish, not beer-battered ones),
and get a small water pump from there. It will pump a lot more water,
(better since you're looking for a 'waterfall', not a 'fountain' effect),
and be MUCH cheaper. You then don't also have to worry about breaking the
pneumatic lego. (Pumping water through it can't be a good idea, in terms of
durability.)
Later,
David Drew.
