Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

I didnt mention when I am going to build it....

Maybe year 2025 when Ive finished the other 500 things I need to do.

You didn't even mention IF you were going to build it....

Ha ha, your too wise old master..

Don't worry Charlie I am sure you will get to it soon enough. Sometimes it is nice to approach something more slowly. It gives you enough time to mull the details and really get your head around what you want to do.

On a different note our New Zealand visas were approved today!

We will be shutting down here and flying to the other side of the world around the 27th of August or so. Now I have to book flights and containers and stuff. Bloody hell it's all happening now.

Regards, Martin.

So you are going to be a Kiwi Marti? Hope you like sheep a lot.

Charlie why are you putting it in a shed? you are almost close to the banana bender state.

Charlie, you need to check and see if the dream has impacted your checkbook, that's when reality sets in I could have sworn I saw filtration media for this beast back a bit

Martin, I heard there's more sheep than people in NZ . Seriously though, wish you the best.

Yea it will take time Marty, im slowly collecting bits and pieces.

Sleepe, yep it's tub tropical but I like the idea of having everything in the shed because at times sections will be shut off from the outside and run recirc for barra.

Scotty, yep it will be a pricey build so it may take a couple of years to complete. I'll do it in sections. The bio media will be replacing what most would use as RFF's, I believe I can make it more effective this way.

Once you see the plans you will get what I'm doing.

Glad your all approved Marty, and hope all goes smoothly for you and the family.

All coming together mate, where did you get your tanks from. Let me know if you need a hand sometime could do with a change of scenery for a couple days every now and then. Best to Mrs Charlie from us both. Cheers

Thanks Charlie.

@Sleepe and Scotty - interestingly the make up of the New Zealand livestock populations have changed somewhat and there are now more cattle in NZ than sheep although I think they still both outnumber humans. I am happy with that, lots of food and less competition.

I might become a Kiwi as long as support of the All Blacks is not mandatory.

The difference between a sheep and a cow.............A stool.

You are very bad

I just heard a big swoosh as that went way over my head.

A bit of Aussie ,kiwi banter, been going on for years. Certainly hope you will not be supporting the A.B. Mate. That would certainly keep you on the east side of the ditch. Cheers

No worries Bear. I support the Springboks and any team playing Australia.

Why ? What were you doing at the time Martin............
