There is a sweet spot where the flow is just right and the water will follow the chain. More or less than that the water will leave the chain and head to the ground well before the end of the chain. **Q: How many "cups" are in one order? I want my rain chain to have 21 cups (anniversary). If there are more than that, can the be removed easily?** A: The cup count is 23. Yes, cups can be removed, but it will require cutting of the joining links. **Q: Does it come in black?** A: Yes. **Q: Can you tell me the size (length, width) of the individual links. The links include little square buckets, right?** A: Each "bucket" (or cup) portion is 2"H x 1.25"W. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lightweight & Looks Fantastic *by B***N on 16 July 2021* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Llegaron a tiempo *by C***O on 7 September 2024* Son de metal y se ve bien el acabado de la pintura.
