Hi

Have been looking at AP for a while and have decided to have a crack. Have a very large, old spa and a bath. Am trying to get ideas for what next. Is there a book or similar which is the bible for this sort of thing? Am thinking we would like 2 large beds with water flowing from spa-beds-bath-spa. Are we on the right track?

Anyway, we are very excited about learning some new techniques and about the possibilities of AP.

Hi,
Thanks for your replies and welcome.
Is there one book in particular that is "the book" for aquaponics, or any that you have found really useful.
Thanks,
Nathan and Bron

There are several books available Nathan... of course, each seller claims their book "is the most complete" book on the market... :wink:

Aquaponic systems come in many different flavours... and several different methodologies...

There is no "complete" book that really covers them all.... and so much of aquaponics is being redefined as time goes on anyway...

Joels book/cd/manual is as good a place to start as anywhere... :wink:
