Good luck with this. I've tried a few different designs based around the flapper style, and it was a never ending headache. I could get it to work for a day, then the flapper would either stay open or get stuck closed. There is a lot of abuse going on inside one of these, and something invariably fails, at least with the bubble-less style surges. Keep trying, but test, test, test, then test again before designing an entire tank around this.
