I have been reading this and murrays forum for about 18 months now
it started off as a 4 blue barrel system linked to an IBC with goldies and silver perch
this then became 8 beds and eventually 15 beds linked to two ibcs.
there are 3 floating raft beds and the rest are syphon .
the last seven beds are linked by a single mega syphon and this works much better than the beds with individual syphons.
Thesecond ibc has about 40 trout and is enclosed by a plastic igloo7.5mx3.6mx2.5m high and has a rocket mass heater ( proto type anyway)
Iwill attach pics next post, i have tried to get this post going and keep stuffing it up
Cheers Byron

Great to get that early start on the tomatoes, we have a few plants here in systems that have stayed going through winter, even had a few tomatoes over winter. Should be some pretty big crops for summer with big plants.
