Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

The koi must get hungry ad keep them like that

Boy, that was quick. I had heard about Koi being a good clean up crew. I thought you might have been a finatic and cleaned them specially to keep them running well.
Look very clean and clear!

na... not me...just the fish doing there thing

I need some Koi. Moved the main pump today and it was very messy.

lol..... get a few... they are great

I have goldfish in all my tanks to clean up

There's a good Koi farm in Camden south of Sydney. They deliver fish as well as sell from the door.

Koi are great, They 'eat' the gravel on the bottom of my indoor FT, scour all the junk into their stomachs and spit out the rocks.
I'd never thought of them for keeping tanks clean, but it stands to reason.
They get a bit cranky with low temperatures though.

Just don't buy them too big too start with ...cause they grow so quick on the food available for the trout and barra...if I grow out a barra successfully that gets as big as the kio....I will be very happy.

I would love to see this concept of growing fresh produce predominantly through the North West of Australia.......Now just to see the dream come true

Trim your tomato's !

Wow, doing well with the broccoli too.

Jessy, you are a true inspiration. Your journey through aquaponics is often on a roller coaster losing it all in strong winds and having to replant, but through your determination you get some fantastic results. The locals are fortunate to have a garden as lovely as yours to share and learn in. Best wishes, Faye

great growth there - wish my system had enough light to do what your does - well done
