Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

We do not get any wireless broardband here and very little mobile phone

Too many mountains between you and Caboulture? Those glass house mountains are not see through!!

Take a step out of the capitals and telecommunicatins pretty much goes down the tube. I work 15min out of Bunbury (not far from Gavins fish farm) and have poor mobile coverage. Doesn't matter which provider you are with either.

As an aside, We got 50mm of rain last night.

OMG were just mates with a few comon interest. and that definately aint no homoponics interests.

Next time I'm heading out that way BnBob I'll take you up on that, Perhaps bring some of my produce for you to sample

Hey Bear, do you know that we will be neighbours next year? Well, kinda neighbours.

Hope you legendary queenslander mob can come over for the house warming party??

I'm the sort of person who tells people their fly is down or that they have a big booger hanging out of their nose. I just wanted to let Ccbear know that referring to you as BF might confuse the new people here...

Would homoponics be using advanced bipedal primates to grow vegetables?

Hey Charlie, make it summer and I will be there, cheers

What a permanent move? Where? And of course we will be there, never known a qlder to miss a free feed and drink.

Yea mate, permanent move next year.

Ill be a few hours south of you around Ballina area.

Like to thank blind freddie for a few hours for this morning starting to seal up the grow bed and enclose some of the fish tank area. Hoping to cut out some wing and the frost.

Thanks BF cheers

No worries mate,
thats all going to look great when its finnished and will no doubt help control the environmental conditions for your system's

I've just looked at your photos - I like the way you insulated and weather proofed your FT!

That I think my friend may have been the main sump tank which is out in the weather. The main FT is a cutdown poly tank holding about 2300 litres under cover.

I have had to wrap black plastic around to try and bring in some heat to the water. Water Temperatures have been down to 14 c. At the moment I am trying to enclose most of the shelter the fish tank is under as well as a structure over the grow beds. My thanks to Blind Freddie for giving me a hand.

Driving to Darwin for a week on Thursday so will post some updated photos When I return. My laptop has needed a good clean out so my son who owes me a bit of money has bought me a macPro and new printer and is going to transfer every thing over while we are away. Just have to learn a new system.

Trust every one is well and having a good time, Cheers

The whole point of a Mac is that there is not much to learn.
