Harlyn Mall replied to David L. Eisenbrandt's discussion Free air?"I agree with Dan. I uploaded a picture of a simple tee off of the pump in my system. It provides plenty of extra air and water movement. And then the bell siphon of coarse adds plenty as well."

Jim Fisk commented on Jim Fisk's group IBC Aquaponics"Hi Leo, bury the PT as far under ground as sunset likes. Not sure the oem pallet would take kindly to being under ground for long. As far as bloat is concerned I have had them push the cage out quite a bit when not supported as I describe. The 330s…"
Jay commented on Anselmo Torres's group SoCal aquaponics"Anselmo,

Bob Alvin replied to Michael sanders's discussion I want to monitor my AP system from a web site"I built the system over a year ago, but I found some items and put them in this drop box folder. Here is a link to it - DropBox folder. If you want a free drop box account, I'd love the referral--I get extra free space (free dropbox).

ModeratorHarold Sukhbir replied to Ariel Scott's discussion How many goldfish to add
"Hi Ariel,
The ratios from the rules of thumb are 1 lb of fish per 4 gallons water. As gold fish are smaller you can increase the numbers as long as you don't go over the ratios, which in your case should be approx 9 lbs of fish. So the system…"
