what do you guys think about using ebb and flow tables with these 2gal pots filled with hydroton

Discount Hydroponics - 8'' Perfect Pot

either just use it as an ebb and flow or i was thinking abouthooking up the 500 gph pump to the 1/2 inch tubing around and then running 1/4'' tubing to each one of the plants and just having them running straight up no drip or anything..

with both systems i will be needing to put 30gal rez's under each table.. ebb and flow will need the whole 30 but im hoping if i do the drip one it wil use much less.. tell me what ya think
