Gday all, new to this, watched a few videos on Youtube and decided I would try the aquaponics stuff, well I was looking for a water feature then it became a fish pond, now its going to be two IBC’s that I just ordered off gumtree, ok I watched all the videos on Youtube some even twice

Yes it is, and I have just worked out a theory that would make the pump obsolete! In the system I am going to setup, its only a theory now! don’t panic! I will show and tell when I get my Icbs this weekend. It could take a few months off fine tunning“and setting it up , but the thought is there, no I am not a physicist but I am really good at working out what’s not right with something, and if you watched half off the youtube stuff I have seen, there is a lot off stuff that’s just not right! Its like your saying don’t do that as you watch the videos,
I may still need an air pump, but while typing this I have though off another idea?
Somebody stop me! Please!

I have also just worked out the affordable heating for fish in winter, in my head, this is just theory for now as I have not done the test to prove it, no I am not asking for donations, but I have this feeling things are going to change real quick in the thinking off Aquaponics. Real soon. I have already worked out how to cool the fish in summer. Apply a whirly bird to the top off your fish tank, you know the ones you put on your house roof, that would take a lot off heat out off your system if you have a cover over your fish tank, if you use a hinge on the cover you could place the whirlybird at the back plate with an extension pipe to get full wind, this would be in an outdoor application Icb .
