Watched a few youtube videos to get a high level knowledge. Checked amazon to get a rough idea of costs, Went to a local hydroponic store, asked for help and they helped me pick out the nutrient solution, ph balancer, stakes, tube etc. Bought the rest off of amazon. Read the instructions on the bottle. I'm sure there are better ways of doing things but this worked for me.

Reservoir: Ikea storage box I had already.
White Basket (Not needed): From Target that I had already.
Rest I got from local hydroponics store.
I bought this pump. If you get a slightly larger one, you could also use it for recirculating ice water through an immersion chiller. The 185 doesn't really have enough power for that.
In the second pic, the metal part is just a standard liquid line barb to male thread. The line is standard liquid line, the plastic part came with the pump.
That's it.
Here are some extra pics.
These are 4" pipes.
Used electrical outlets at the end and gorilla glued them in.
Three inlet tubes for circulation on the end, then the four on top are for air.

Not sure how this setup is going to work yet, but I will post more with success or failure.
I've got this one and it works great https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0012UZYMG/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Works well for cleaning out beer lines on the keezer also. You'll need one of these to do that though. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B010P1WT8E/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I use a lowes 5 gal bucket, two bags of ice, and a cheap aquarium 264 gph pump from Amazon. Use faucet hose till I hit 100F (10 min), then switch to ice water re-circulation.
Been working great on these hot summer days.
Right on, I found an alternate photo of it on Amazon as well. http://www.amazon.com/EcoPlus-Submersible-Pump-264/dp/B0012UZYMG
Thanks for following up, I'm buying it.
I saw a review, and saw this one was recommended, but showing the amount of flow coming through the lines I was thinking faster flow might give it a better clean:
