Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

Spoke to tanks supplier, like the idea of joels corrugated iron tanks, but old mate at tank place can only do beds 250 to 280 depth. Joels beds are 300 is 250-280 deep enough?

Hi to everybody new to forum and new to aquaponics.

nope, must be 300mm, is a golden ratio, aliens will vapourise your system otherwise.........



250-280 will be fine!

Welcome Rohan.

Thanks mate was worried about alien factor. Thought it be ok at that depth but always good to get a bit of positive affirmation. Hate to spend all that money on tanks just to find out oops. Had a bit of a play with hydro years ago and vaguely remember theres a bit of scope with particle size and depth??

do try and go the 280 though, just gives more space for solids entrapment and "processing"
