Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

Righto then.

So water change 50% tomorrow, and add Salt to that when replaced aswell

I've only skimmed through this, but I'm suspecting that the problem might be the same as what tends to kill most fish, to much doing, not enough leaving alone...

Too much feed in a new system, stop feeding, sit on hands.. Aquaponics is the kind of hobby that you really need to start at the same time as a second hobby, so the other one can keep your mind off the aquaponics, especially in the early stages.

The only thing I am doing is testing the water. There is not alot else happening. Feed and keep an eye on things.... Hmm

No... Don't feed.... and keep an eye on things...

right

I know the feeling, at the start its all you can think about and those little hungry fish are very hard to say no to.

It's not that I want to feed them, I want this to work.. Getting so much advice and trying what people tell me... yeah...
Not always a good thing.


Guess ill just lay low for a bit and let this do it's thing...
Cheers

I've only seen it in 25kg bags here.. If yours is definately 20kg, then I guess salt isn't the problem.. If it's 25kg though, it might be..

Definitely 20.... Got it from local stock feeders...

Day2 home... Water seems good fish are happy. Plant are looking okay too. Lost the corriander due to the salt I think, but I can live with that. Better than loosing fish.

Nitrates and nitrites are definitely doing their thing, so I'll just have to go back and reference the bio chart that was in some earlier replies to see where it's at.....

Not doing much else.... Only feeding once a day...
