New to the posts (and to aquaponics) so I thought I'd say "Hi". My students (16-18 Y.O.) have built a 3,000 gal cinder block pond. Water runs into the schools greenhouse to aluminum roofpans. Trying all the methods to see what works best. Plants are watered every two hours for 20 minutes.

I'll be checking back frequently with lots of questions

Thanks in advance

Welcome TL and class, any chance of seeing some pics of your set-up?

If you have questions be sure to ask there is a fountain of knowledge on this site and we are more than happy to part with it.

Good to see the kids getting into it too!
