Looking for grow beds round or rectangle in melbourne, any ideas?

What size or capacity you after Pondi??

Hi Pondi, notice in your profile you have listed yourself as a "primary producer"......

With that status I'd suggest maybe looking at the Nylex Sheep and Cattle troughs... I reckon they're great value compared to any normal water tank and still beat most corrugated tanks...


First link just some info from a local supplier ..... should be someone equivalent in your area

Second link to pricelist ...

..... go to pages 8 (i think)....

It lists prices and dimensions...... they have "sheep" feeders that are about 370mmm high.... thought of these as growbeds

And "cattle" feeders from 1000ltr (too shallow) up to 4,500ltr @ 870mm high. The 4,500 ltr is about $900.

Also have those longline trough feeder things as well

Thanks for that, thought there could be custom aquaponics bed. Looking at 500 to 1000 lt.

Pondi - PM the owner of this site. His username is Earthbound, real name Joel. Joel has produced a purpose built aquaponics grow-bed - 500litres approx - which he will soon be supplying.

Have a look at the following thread where Joel used the beds to set up a system for a lady http://www.backyardaquaponics.com/forum ... 22&start=0

They look great thanks .
