I am from Jacksonville, Florida and new to Aquaponics. I started building a small greenhouse on Dec. Finished Jan 14 with 6(six) 10 foot 4 inch PVC for my NFT, 2(two) 4 foot x 4 foot flood and drain grow bed. A 330 gallon fish tank. It keep saying file is too big. How can I upload pictures.

Nice looking system.

What are the brackets holding the NFT pipes? Only two brackets? No sagging?

Brackets are plastic designed for 4 inch PVC pipes, From Lowe's hardware $0.95 I Think what I paid for. Pipes are rigid enough, besides not too heavy just water and plants, but I will see later on when the plants grow if I need to support it more. Thanks

Thanks, can't say I have seen that design of bracket over here. will do some research. I have half a plan of expanding by using NFT and pipes, but still a way off at this stage.
