Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

Hi

I have been interested in Aquaponics for quite sometime but have only recently setup my system.

I bought most of my equipment a year or so ago and it has taken this long to get it started.

After lurking on this site for over a year I finally signed up so thought it time to make the next move and say Hi.

I have a 1000litre IBC for the FT
Approx 600 litre Sump
2 IBC ends for grow beds and 1 more IBC end as another growbed (my wife currently using it to grow out some american cichlids).

Mine is a CHIFT PIST system sith a SLO in the FT gravity feeding to the growbeds, then sump and back to FT.

When i figure out how to add photos I will

Welcome
Look forward to the pics

Thanks for the welcome

here goes an attempt at putting up a photo of the system so far

As you can see it has tilted both ways a little lol, but in light of the recent heavey rain and flooding it didnt do too bad, i can easily jack it up and level it

Here it is from another angle

here is future expansion

I think I have created a monster. Now I kno how to add photos I can't stop. lol

Very neat system, well done
That big tank looks impressive but I wouldn't want to dig a hole to put it in the ground LOL

Thats what we like and it gives you a good record of your journey, cheers.
