Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

Hi All
Been creeping around in the background for almost 12 months now, finally the missus bugged me enough to post our little system.

Started off with two IBC's with roughly 500litres in each and 36 silver perch and one rogue Barramundi that some how found his way in with the other fingerlings.

So far using bore water and no salt, we have had no fish deaths just on a 15minute/hour cycle.
Fingers crossed everything works well for the 48 seedlings we just added on this week.

Hey Mondos..

Cool.... You might be able to catch the barra now the weather is cooling down, I don;t imagine that he will survive the whole of winter in there as it will get a bit cold..

Not yet Rupert, the NFT was alitte project for my week off work.
At this stage I have a basic pond pump doing all the work, what I want is to add a solids filter and some sort of backup pump/power system when I get a chance.
