Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

I'm in the process of doing a hobby setup

Hi suziq21, I live in Frederick and work in Columbia. Just moved so I don't have an AP system setup per se but have been this for awhile now, will be glad to help!

Is this thread still alive? I'm considering starting a setup in Nova...

Now it is

I'm in Frederick. I plan to come down your way to eat at Donatos Pizza sometime.

There's also an AP tour coming up in the area. A couple folks in the area are "open" for tours. If I'd have known about it earlier I would have signed up as well.

Awesome! Suziq21 thanks for the heads up about the tours! Dave are you going to be attending any of the tours?

I'm in the Maryland Suburbs of DC. I have my raised bed (more traditional I suppose than you folks!) thus far, but aquaponics seems interesting. TBH, I'm more interested in fish, because, heck, I'm already growing organic in a nice area, and I don't need any grow media other than what I find under my feet and in the garden center! But Growing Tomatoes in the dead of winter would sound appealing....

I'm from the Midwest, but welcome to the forum!

Hello,
I'm currently in the Midwest, but will be moving back to my family's farm in Frederick MD and hope to start an AP system there to supplement their on-farm market with extended season produce (currently most of their produce comes from other smaller growers and they produce pastured chicken/eggs and beef).
My current setup is ~200 gallons of fish tank and ~30 sq ft of grow bed in a 12'x12' greenhouse that sort of kept me in greens for the winter (well, not really hardly at all, but not getting it running until December in bitter midwestern winter slowed it down. I'll be in MD for the summer and hopefully can charge into next winter with much more established and growing).

What sort of setup are you going with (style and scale)?

Welcome to the forum gbsisus13!

We need to get together, I will have my system up real soon now. (Maybe a month or so?)

Maryland well i spend most of my time is spent in md but my ap system is in pa

To all that have posted- Welcome

What are you going with Dave? I need to get a post up with my system and might be able to do it if the little one keeps refusing to take an afternoon nap! I went with a bit of a hybrid system. 2-275g IBCs, 2 mortar pans for grow bed, 45g sump and then 500g raceway for DWC. Stuff is growing like crazy!

I'm in Maryland, St. Marys County. I don't have an aquaponics systems just yet, still lurking and learning.
