Do they know you started building it. They'll take there time then. Like the design.

yep, was wating for the big lecture but they just advised not to go any further till the paper work went through. ive got one tank so far which i`ll set up just with a few fish in it to start up the bacteria in the filters, break in all the new gear so to speak

There not too bad if you keep them in the loop. Just slows everything down.
1+ for getting the bacteria going early.

But how far did you get before they told you to stop :shock:

Plead oldtimers syndrome if they come out before you get the tick...
or it is a "trial version" of the plan :wink:

Just a temporary "mockup"... to set heights and finalise the design which WAS going to be submitted to council... :wink:

well still waiting for the reply from the council so i thought id start to construct my growing troughs, decided i would build them out of fiberglass since i did a bit in my teens, hoping its like riding a bike. they`ll be 2.4m long by 1250mm wide and 350 deep, and ive made them to join together i.e. recessed edge at one end plus end pieces to suit that way i can change the length from 2.4m to 18.7(includes overlap at joins). I`ve got one mold made so far and will make the first finished product next week if all goes well :cheers:
