Hi: This post on another forum has me intrigued for designing a shipping container-based AP system, for fun if nothing else: http://forums.gardenweb.com/forums/load ... 13746.html There is a lot of interest currently in shipping container-based architecture for houses, etc. and I think making a modular AP system would be a natural use of such a container. Might drum up interest in AP among architect circles? http://firmitas.org/ Here are some shipping containers on Sketchup's 3D Warehouse to get started, and Joel's AP hardware thread: http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/ ... rch&styp=m viewtopic.php?f=9&t=4101 I will work on my design maybe during XMas break! |

Something like this could be done as part of a design? http://www.aquaticeco.com/subcategories ... Fish-Tanks |

I saw a system in S.A. that had the aquaponic fish tanks set-up inside an insulated shipping container. I will see if I can find it again. |

The growbed on their "Home" system is pretty much a waste of time... too small, too shallow... Another aquaculture system with "addons" .... filters, and filters.... to make it look like an aquaponics system.... bit like the "AquaFarm".... I wouldn't buy one .... certainly not at that price... there are better, and cheaper kits available.... that work....  Their NFT looks good, but I wonder if it's actually run with AP water.... or is actually a hydro system... |
