Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

HI Everyone,I am Ken. I am new here but have read and learned a lot as a visitor so wanted to join. I have experiamented with AP a time or 2 but am ready to build a working system that will work to the most effeciency VS Yeild I possibly can. I guess I should post my questions on it in the new systems forum. I will be building from all IBCs as that is what I have plenty of now.I look forward to getting input from all of you. Ken.

hey ken.. be sure to download "The IBC's of Aquaponics" from this site

Thanks Keith, but with my computer it would take 2 and a half hour and would completely bog me down but maybe can soon. I tried posting to New Systems but couldnt get it to work. I hope to build a backyard system that will one day become comericial. I hope to start with a 260 gallon IBC as my FT and use IBCs cut in half for the GBs I plan on using an airlife system from the drain already in the IBC to the GB then a pump from there to overhead trays draining through strawberry towers back to FT. By my reasearch I hope to raise 100 catfish to a little over a pound in this system with 2 Gbs at the start and adding on as trhe fish grow.Any input in this would be helpful as I hope to build more equal systems and intergrate them.
