Hello, I have been running my system since Dec. 2014. I finally decided to join. Some times it hard to find reliable info. I am excited to start learning more and contributing. Right now i have a 150 gal fish tank. with a 25 gal grow bed. Its running a 1000 gpm pump a bypass with a venturi and a bell siphon. it fills in 18 min and drains in 3 mins. I'm going to upgrade my system. I will be adding 2 maybe 3 grow beds and a sump tank. I'm just trying to find where to buy an IBC. :wave1:

Welcome. Have you tried craigslist for IBC's.

Welcome eclipseguy! :wave1:

Got any photos of the system? Maybe start a members system thread and show us your current system and let us watch your expansion take shape. I love seeing the little tricks members come up with to overcome the many obstacles, small and large, that they encounter with their particular setup. So inspiring.

Re getting IBC's. When I started I didn't know anyone that had any IBC's that I could get free/cheap so I had to but them. But once I got going and all my friends became aware that I do AP and they had heard enough about it to know what an IBC was, they would keep an eye out and whenever they heard of someone with an IBC for free they'd let me know. So maybe just let all your friends know and be patient and maybe a freebee will turn up.

I just found the guy I bought the first tank from. I just went though and installed the new tank and plumbed it in. But I just lost my 5 trout and 6 gold fish. I will post pics. The new thread.
