Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

Mine's perfeshunul. Colur-co-ordunated an' everthin'.

I got a mortar mixing tub to use as a grow bed but haven't hooked it up yet. They are good because they are wide and shallow. Paid extra because it was a special order/shipping. It was like $100. 3' x 5' x 1'

I like the look of those pumps.. their so.. Shiny!!!

Mathew and Keving... polytank inc. is the source of those 4x8x1 growbeds and they also sell aquaculture purpose built tanks. The best and most professional looking AP equipment available.

now, assuming they did get the small child out before the pavers were put down... what are they going to do to keep her out of the tanks? A sheet of reo over the top? or pool fencing?

EB, is this the car lady?

Yes, no children were harmed in the making of this system... And they will be putting a pool fence up around it, and building a patio over the top.

No it's not the car lady. She has gone over seas...

Thanks for the info about what they charge for grow beds over there, thats rather expensive.. Though looking at some of the other alternatives you have , I don't think it's viable to my beds shipped to the US.. Not yet anyway..

Seems you need someone to come across and design a decent system layout for you EB :sigh:

Volunteering to help - does that qualify for a BYAP "T" shirt

EB, another great looking system. I had the plans all drawn up for my new system, then I showed the last one to my husband. He has all new ideas.

Janet has stock in Rubbermaid. Hi Janet!

Really nice work EB. Wish I had access to all that here but alas.... we do what we can with what we have.

EB,

Have you got any systems in the Great southern (ie Denmark / Albany) region?? Or going to in the near future? Just wanna see one up close n personal

Hey Bazz,

Sorry, none in the south west yet, though there may be one soon as my brother is interested in having a system.. He lives half way between Denmark n Albany and has a fine craft gallery there..

That's great EB. Whats the name of his gallery, migh pop in for a look.

If you do end up putting one in, let me know in advance if you need some labour. I work 1 week on and 1 week off, so have some time up my sleeve.
