    That is the answer to your problem. By the way, rotation as on a motor base, will also solve the problem.

    Yeah, if you must agitate (invert) by hand you must fully cover the film.

    If you believe you can, or you believe you can't... you're right.

    To work properly, the tank cannot be stationary for any amount of time. It must rotate continuously.

    Here's a crop of the Jobo datasheet showing 270ml of solution required for up to 6 4x5 sheets at a time. If your particular developer requires more volume per sheet, you use more or process fewer sheets.

    The Solution circle in the title bar shows the liquid level in the tank when stationary. The grey shading was hard to see so I put a red line above the liquid level in the drawing. Note how low it is.
