Haha, that's awesome.
But what is that pump? Looks like a humidifier or something??

It's a really old Waterpik that was still at my parents old house when we was cleaning it out, getting it ready to sell. The little hose was rotten (From age) and had broken off, the tip already gone and so on; It was basically worthless as was.
They bought it years ago (Late 70's or Early 80's) and since it still worked as in able to pump water, I didn't see the point in just tossing it when I could do something like this with it - So I did.
Moves alot of water through the sticks for what it is and I did modify the opening of the pump for extra volume, that certainly helped.

Lol, that's a really neat idea. And it works like a charm.
Do you have a radiator above where we can't see it?

No rad right now, I'll get around to that later.

UPDATE:
The little motor inside went bad so it's toast now.
I thought at first the little plastic piston-pump assembly had seized but it was fine, just the motor itself was the problem.
Fun idea but now that it's gone I'll need to do some work to keep things so I can watercool my sticks as needed.
