Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

I have a 5'lx3'wx2'h fiberglass tank with two 2" drains on the bottom. I was looking for some ideas as to how I can use it for aquaponics. I've seen some inventive ideas from some of you guys with IBC's and tubs and stuff so I was just hoping to get some freah ideas. I currently have a 3'hx8'x8' above ground pond with a 55 gallon settling tank and a 55 gallon barrel wet/dry. I was thinking maybe setting up an additional sump and building some growbeds or using it for a breeding tank. Anyways I would be grateful for any helpful suggestions. (I've already been told by friends of mine that it would be great for holding 3 kegs of beer or as an outside soaking tub; lol).

I did this

Oh, you said fibreglass didn't you... hummm
well maybe a nice infloor tank then :-)
Extra FT or extra ST is the way to go.
If you need a bigger ST (you're wanting to add more GB than your ST can handle) then go for it, else make a bigger FT.
Either way more fish or more veggies = Happier BYAPer

And tis a thing of beauty too Kuda...

Yep... I'd definitely be putting fish in it...

Drooling at your fish tank pics. Very jealous. Its a beautiful setup Kuda.
