Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

Hi Nocky,
Yes did have a few toyes and picks and shovels.
Cheers,Eagle

Lucky you live near the "Sea" , Eagle , you'll get great weather for trout growth ..
Maybe if alot of people show interest in this thread we can listen to Eagle "Express" his opinion on how fun and interesting aquaponics is

heheh

looks like Im racing you to trout smoking time

Hum, and I thought we were expecting the system to get a name change, not the author

Such a beautiful system too.

Also found another pic from today

I'd say the name change would be :
"Eagle's awesome System"

its got balcony fishing access to the tanks !

Boris, Sea Eagle, Eagle Express how many more puns in one thread
Fish look Hungry C1, I'm coming to Margs to pinch some idea's so make sure you have plenty of beer and shiraz

I was trying for a 3rd one but the beer was clouding my creative word-play abilities

Hi all,
Thank you for your best wishes and kind remarks.
Boris01Hi mate thanks for the many name changes, here is one for you Gay Sherar/Sherar or Tsitra what do u think.
Nokey u are welcome any time i do have the odd bottle of wine.
The water falls are far from finished i put in place more rocks yesterday and the water is running over them and not via the poli pipes.
Will post more pics when finished ,if ever!!
Cheers,
Eagle.

How do you do a monolithic? is the concrete ultra runny? or do you use a drier mix such that the walls don't drain onto the floor?
I've never poured walls, I'm sure I'd end up having ugly bubbles in it.

Hi creative1
Not a bad pic of the Trout u took yesterday however made them look smaller than they are,
Boris1 thinks he will be smoking his before me!! we might have a surprise for him.
Hope u are felling better to day.
Regards,
Eagle.

KP-Monolithic - a big word for poured in one go.
The concrete was about 80 slump so standard but also had super plastisizer, silca fume
and was 32 mpa. the base is poured first and then the walls the walls don't slump down too bad...
well that is the hope anyway
Eagle, yes thanks feeling better again.

Well ... the "Eagle has landed"....

Welcome mate...keep posting them photos... especially when your trout get bigger than Ivans....

will it happen?

Unless youre planning on smokin' some trout today , I reckon Ive beat you !

I knocked the air line to one of the tanks 2 days ago getting fish out for Duckpond , and I went to check it before bed late that night / early morning and found a tank full of trout gasping for air

I managed to get it all working again but two didnt make it - theyve been marinating in the fridge ever since ...

gonna go smoke them now for a nice afternoon snack

Don't forget the pics Boris.
