Can you explain a bit more about your system?

Is it just a recirculating aquaculture system that your watering your beds with? Or does the water from the beds go back to the system?

This is no different from all my other systems, in theory.

When done it will be fully closed loop, or should I say, as closed as you can for this size op.

Organic media. The drippers you see are suplemental, comes from an on site well. The feed lines from the pond are 1in burried just below the surface runs the whole lenght of the bed so does the drain pipe.
