Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

So as I said, plumbed poorly haha



Above is inlet, with what I call a "poor man's Venturi", this gives me some bubbles with little restriction of flow.



Above is outlet, as I said, not completed. I will be turning this into a SLO. Lots of debris and algae that I need to suck out, should be less of an issue now that shade cloth is up, and foam rafts are blocking out most of sun.



General pipe work.

Hope this helps, more what not to do then actually do (well not to start until fully ready and having all equipment).


Would you like some basil and Jade Perch with that latte sir?

Cool thanks mate
how much flow are you putting through them?

About 300 LPH, need more 50mm pipe to get more, which is plan.

What's not to love about AP?

that picture of your fish is terribly inspiring

That picture is awesome!

How are the customers reacting to the system?

Thanks Boss!

Yeah really good Colum, kids especially, but all aspects. More interest in the garden part of it, from adults, which is interesting!

"I am growing Barramundi and Silver Perch. Why I don’t know? I just wanted a water feature. I have chosen one of the hardest fish to grow in your back yard. Because I can. I don’t have a greenhouse. My fish and plants are subject to the elements. If I can do this then anyone can."

Was on another forum and saw this, 3 guesses but the first two don't count who it was ahaha

I agree with the others absolutely stunning picture.....

Thanks DB!

Uh oh - spreading the love elsewhere now is he...? What's the bet that the other forum's moderators aren't as forgiving as ours?

That pic is awesome! I can't wait to get over to QLD and come check it out :-) soon I hope!

Yeah Kat, he behaved himself for two or three posts, and then the below came out, will be interesting to see how long it lasts! Mind you much less active forum so might not cause as many issues as quickly!

He might like it better over there, they won't question his chop 2 design, or filters. And Murray is probably his hero on youtube.

Was replying on the fly last night Kat, that would be cool if you get a chance to visit! And yeah CBB, he's mentioned that to Murray already.
