Howdy all, awesome website. I've been reading up on aquaponics for about a year now, planning my system. Been gardening for a few years, veggies, fruits, and tropical flowers. Grew up in a rural area, we grew most of our food. I heard about hydroponics years ago, when I read about AP the lightbulb just went off... "Brilliant!"

Plans are for a greenhouse, most likely 20x24 feet, to house the operation. Right now leaning heavily towards IBC's, with a single larger tank for crustaceans... red claws or freshwater prawns. Between this and our chickens, rabbits, and maybe a goat or two in the future, I'd like to be mostly self-sufficient in the grocery department in the coming few years.

Any rate, cheers fellas, looking forward to learning lots from you pros!

Definitely will have pics when the time comes, but may be a while... the Supreme Leader has dictated that I build her a front porch on the house before I'm allowed to have my greenhouse, so I have a bit of planning time on my hands. May well be acquiring materials and supplies between now and then, though......
