Just checking to say hey!

Just started up my first system in December. Still working on the finishing touches on occasion until it get her done. My system has two 55gal drum fish tanks, one around 75gallon DWC bed, two halves of a 55gal flood/drain bed, one 55gallon wicking bed, two 5gal constant flood buckets filled with river rock, and plan on adding in several small towers to fill in the gaps. All running off of 1 pump.

There are gold fish & fathead minnows in the tanks.

Lettuce, tomatoes, chives, garlic chives, oregano, strawberries, sage, etc. in the flood/drain beds.

Been brewing compost tea to inoculate the system with. Already some worms in there too.

Welcome to the forum Marty :wave: . Sounds like an interesting system. Start up a system thread and post a few pictures when you get a chance.

Cheers
