Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

just measured the water in trout tank, 24 deg trout no where to be seen, must be hiding deeper, my temp gauge only measures half way down

Tanks with an airstone are all the same temp i would get them out or realy watch for any floaters also put all your air stones in the trout tank

lotsa air

Hey mizzie
that looks great was wondering how your system was going

good to see your garden stood up to the 40+ heat, i lost most of the veg in the dirt garden, but the AP veg is going strong

hi peoples just been doing a house reno, glad thats done now back to the fun things in life,thanks for the post of photos f&f still lookinfg 4 do camera now looking 4 an other tank want to get trout again.. man and the obsession continues

Good to see you're still on the wagon Mizzie...

dug hole for new trout tank, 1.5 mtrs, filled it with water, connected my sump to this tank.. things running well..so i thought Dog barking madly at 2 in morning, stuck head out door and told the mongrel to shut up..next i herd the sound of breaking glass, probably the neighbours i thought.. In am went 2 feed fish, 300 silvers, 100 cod 4 cat fish..and there . was my sump and trout tank floationg on 5000 litres of water, back 2 the drawing board

3 rd fish tank running well, i had a look at the cod last night, some of them around 1/2 pound, the cold weather dosnt seem to worry them ii am running 4 chift pist set up, in 3 fish tanks all pumps are in the 2500 litre sump.. after the disaster with the 3rd fish tank popping out of the ground, i filled the hole in and put the tank on top, will not run chift pist to this tank in the hotters months only plenty of air..Still eating tomatoes every day, passion fruit, capsicum, silver beet, truck loads of lettice, basil, parsley. winter veg is in so will see what happens. might look for just one more tank help,running about 720 fish.. 320 trout, both brown and rain bow.80 cod, 300 silvers and cat fish, and gold fish
