Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

Haven't seen them burnsy, I live in Narrogin remember how much are they? and of course I don't mind spending money........................she does but will have to extend a bit to give me room around GB's as they are on the edge of carport now, this ap never stops always another bit to add on when are you going to do some other work around here (Sorry was thinking of what to type next and these words keep echoing in my head )

This is what they look like

pretty sure I have seen them under $100 each at Bunnings and K Mart. Do a search online and you might find a cheaper online supplier. I bought one of ebay two years ago for my front verandah before they were available in B and KM and it freighted fine. Has stood up to the weather great as well.

Fare is fair Nocky, she has to do some work too eh!!

Rick I am not digging another hole I can't get out of
Burnsy it will work out at about $800+ going that way, will look at getting the GH plastic from ebay, less than 100$ and build a frame around carport with crap I have lying around, or others have left lying around

Well my 1000th Post, a lot of dribble in that, I finally say farewell to the yellow fish and thought this would be the best place to post it.
Except I have nothing to post I think I will just buy a Carton and celebrate cyberly with anyone that wants to join in

Congrats.

A worthy milestone Nocky...

I'd join in the beer-a-thon ,, but I'm at work ..... can use internet cannot drink beer here ..... bloody silly rules Actually can't use internet either ..... but I'm the boss ..........,, note to self , must talk to self about using internet in work time.

Well made a big hole in the carton, mainly because I'm pisshead but also a dedicated BYAPer but thanks guys, you can put up with me for another 1000 at least, I don't like the new fish much either, the next lot look much better

Plants and fish fine, pH 7.2, Amm 1 Rites 1 Rates 10-20 temp 9c, don't know what is lifting things, looks like trout are on a diet, daughter turned system off to vacuum car for 4 hours, but the OTTO and expensive rechargables saved her arse and has been freezing,water has been down to 7c so suspect the temp playing with things a bit, but can't fix that problem yet, am about to harvest the radish, so stand by for pic of first edible thing being eaten from new system, and my mate old man emu will be with me as well

I have eaten my first produce from the new system and a pic to prove it
Also pic of vegie growth and also pic of the big difference in water levels when pump is on, trout are in the lower level tank.
Adding another skylight today, (oh no that voice in my head again "working on AP again, when are you going to do the other............") veggies will be pleased

Skylight complete so of course another pic, and an attempt of photographing the trout, biggest is 350gms

Looks good. Hope you remembered to wash the radish first.

Nah Duff wasn't any sand on it
70 in rubber air stone (thats what they call it) turned up yoday so will install and post pic's of it in full flight maybe tomorrow so stay tuned
