The gumtree ad is from this bloke.... http://www.salvarient.com.au/products.htm

Indeed... but it's a different bloke... and his product is an exact copy of the BYAP beds....

And he's another ex member that's popped up here, and around the place before.... usually selling what looked like cheap Chinese poly tanks and "grow bed" containers... that he was getting roto-moulded....

Looks like he's taken the BYAP bed and done the same thing... got it roto-moulded, but this time it looks like it's by a local company... or they may have done his initial "cheap" stuff as well...

You might want to follow this one up Joel.... :wink:

And I see they've pinched Sylvia Bersteins "aquaponics cycle" diagram.... chopped the copyright bit off the bottom...

And a pic of one of Murrays beds....

Grow beds appear to be BYAP... but the rest of the stuff isn't....

And I love the "tagline"... "semi-commercial system".... :lol:

yea thought a few would get a kick out of that, its a reasonable set up, not sure why you want to get rid of it... espesially if its producing at a semi-commercial scale

Yeah I saw that system a few years ago when I took some fish out to him. Its made up of quality gear, those tanks all have sloping floors and central drains. Cant undersatnd why he would want to sell up either as he seemed pretty keen on it all when I was there.

He was trying to flog those containers off a while back... looks like he still ended up with afew left over... and is now selling them as "kits"...

What can you say... other than "caveat emptor".....

Is it just me, or does anyone else feel his asking price is a little expensive for a small home made kit?... :dontknow:

I'd buy one... if he could give me change for a genuine $200,000 note!... :D
