hi there, ours names our jason and dana. we have been reading and studying about aquaponics for quite a while... we are going all in,, we have studied the manual from BA .. so here are the ideas wehave already dug a 6000 litre tank and are only filling it up to 4000 liters for our trial start. also we are putting together a 10x24 greenhouse.. our problems are unique for our climate as it freezes here and solid for the winter, so our system will only run from april till nov.. we will stock rainbow trout approx 50-70 to start and 150-200 for year two and up to 5 4x8 growbeds with some nft racks for herbs... |

Pictures please...I'm dyin' to see what your setting is. It sucks that your growing season is so short, perhaps you should sink your money into an indoor freshwater pool you can swim in all year, 'swim with the fishes' as it were. A friend of mine in Ontario had an indoor pool and it was a winter luxury. If you pond is outdoors and deep enough can't you keep the trout alive through the winter by having a bubbler keeping the water moving and preventing ice from building up? |
