Welcome, best suggestion I can give is have a look through members systems at the different set ups. What you can get for grow beds and fish tanks as well as area you have for the system will be your main guide to what style of system you will build. Cheers.

Click on the link below in my signiture to check out my system.

Hi Faisal,

I am just down the road from you in Dubai! :wave1:

Check out my little backyard system here: Dubai IBC AP

It is a very good concept for this part of the world where water is in short supply.

Sorry I meant to put in links for suppliers:

IBC supplier

Clay media for GB

Tilapia suppler

And if you combine this with plants from Satwa (or Sharjah) and water pump from DragonMart, then this is all you need!!
I estimate my whole system cost little more than 1500 AED

Good luck
Dan
