Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

Hi guys thought I'd join the aquaponics conversation, after navivugating in stealth mode for about 7 months (plus there was a bit of pressure from Charlie).
My sytem is about 12 months old with a few highs and lows along the way.
The lows being the loss of 2 lots of fish-1 was unlucky and the other to equipment failure, the highs obviously watching the sytem develop to produce some amazing crops.
There has been a few adjustments along the way and there is going to be some more when time and $ permit.
Hope you like the pics.
Kalponics
Will add pictures later haveing trouble getting them up?

Jeez, about time mate!

Glad to see you finally make it, uploading pics can be a little tricky so hope this helps mate ;-

Firstly need to resize your photos to 800 width and 600 height, google "resizing pics on PC" as I cant remember how to do it on PC as I have a mac. I find it easiest to select your photos and as you resize them save them as a copy to the desktop so they are easy to find. Then when you open a new post on your thread you will see the page is divided into 3 sections and each section is titled with a blue bar - the top one is "Post a reply" the next down is titled "Upload attachment" and the last is the "Topic review". Obviously the top one is to write in your kalgoorlie dribble but the next one down is the buisness section for attachments - click on the "choose file" and browse your desktop for your already resized pic and select it - then click on "add the file" - this will take a moment to load, it is then ready and you can do this another 2 times to have a total of 3 pics ready. Its not till you have hit the "submit" button then your pics will load in with your post on the forum thread. The bottom section (Topic review) is simply to browse back through what is already on that particular thread, I find it handy because I often go to reply to a post and then forget what it was I was actually replying to...I need to calm down on the beers

PM me if you need a hand with anything else

I was once young and stupid, i'm not so young now

Spot on pumkin (Kent) and rockmelon, so far I have spotted about 6 rockmelons on it ranging in size from100-150mm and the pumpkin is just starting to produce.
Unfortunatey I wasw a little late in planting but they have caught up well.

At the moment there is 25 SP in there. Getting more fish soon keep you posted.

I'll have more fish available for purchase from Easter onwards
