Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

hi all my name is shane iam just getting into aquponics trying to wrap my head around all the info on all aquponic sites before i set up, my kids keep telling me to hurry up and and setup the stuff so we can ride our scooters and bikes.
i think aquaponics should have aquponics anonymous because i havent started yet and i cant stop thinking about it and what fish/pants to grow in my system once its up and running
thanks shane

G'day Shane, I'm sure you'll meet deegsta here and he is in your area and has his system running so maybe a catch up for more ideas...(it's to drink beer really but don't tell anyone)

Welcome Shane,
The above statement has certainly been bandied about more than once, let me tell you.
It's been said before "there's no turning back now, we have you hook line and sinker!" So just hang on and enjoy the ride.

Thanks Gnash sure we will i am always up for a beer
