I'm sorry that you haven't received much help on the forum. I hope I've…"

Jeffrey Ihara replied to William J Silverthorn's discussion Water Pressure Puzzle"I agree with Jason. The water level in the fish tank only needs to be higher than the grow bed. "

No hamsters on wheels, or maybe catfish that are yoked in the fish tank and made to swim in circles, thus driving…"

"Hi R.K.,
So i really really like this! Please post when you get it in action asap!"
ModeratorHarold Sukhbir replied to Debra-ann Phipps's discussion Plants all died
"Hi Debra,
Ok, thanks. Yes 1/2 inch would be fine. You can also put the coarser gravel to the bottom this will ensure more water movement there. You can use a length of the same tubing on the inside of the Gb's out flow. Make some slits about…"
R.K. Castillo posted a discussionAquaponics Non Electric Pump Prototype
I've been trying to design an aquaponics pump that runs without electricity and I came up with this design. I nearly had it working until I broke one of the gears. In the next prototype I will use an old bicycle like everyone else uses. What do you think? Do you think this will work? See More

"My 40 tilapia have started growing much more rapidly now that the temperature is steady around 75 to 80 f"
Jason A. replied to William J Silverthorn's discussion Water Pressure Puzzle"As long as your Fish tank is higher than your grow beds you shouldn't have any issues gravity feeding your system. I was connecting some water hose one day to top add some water to my system (well water) and I stuck the hose (about 150ft) in…"

"I thought I killed every bit of the duckweed I introduced, I couldn't get it to grow anywhere in my system or separated from it. Then I added a new tank, which I had intended to make a DWC bed. I noticed a few pieces of duckweed had…"

ModeratorHarold Sukhbir replied to Debra-ann Phipps's discussion Plants all died
"Hi Debra,
Can you do an updated ammonia/nitrite/nitrate test and post the reading? Also what are your temps? Is you dechlorinator plant safe? What type of light are you using for plants.
You mentioned a concern being lack of minerals. Usually in AP…"
ModeratorVlad Jovanovic replied to Beth Medeiros's discussion How many fish do I need?
"Yup, liquid seaweed extract with iron will help the plants continue to grow. Is your fish tank 180 gallons, or your total system water volume? If it's your total water volume then we'll call that 180 gallons... 700 liters...
So at 700…"
Paul Trudeau replied to Paul Trudeau's discussion Southside Park resident nurtures aquaponics farm in the group Sacramento Aquaponics"Yes Jessica, same deal. Only more developed now. Will be on the just-announced June 1 tour too, with a bunch of other cool spots I can't wait to see.
