Aquaponics - Monster Fish

Recently I visit a friend's place and these monster are in his back yard. Those smaller catfish are FOOD for these two.


How good if these tanked fish be turned into aquaponics setup.

Aquaponics - Fern Transplant

Today I transplanted those fern to the growbed on top the brick wall. I took only those older fern rhizome and trim all the leaves and plant it.

It will takes sometime for it to colonize this grow bed, and give my backyard a natural curtain for privacy.
What left are young ferns in the earlier growbed, now they have enough lights to grow better.
This fern was such a bush as previous post, I am worried with those bigger fern trimmed water quality may be compromise. These fern provide good water cleaning properties. I have too see what effect it have to my tank water.

Cheers

Aquaponics - Updates 27th Oct 2009

This an update of my homekit and additional growbed on the bricked wall.

This new growbed I may need to use different timer since I don't use Bell Valve on it. Switching ON and OFF the pump will cause water to flood and drain in this bed.



A short video on my Red Tilapia, a bit difficult to see, most of them hiding as usual. Water has been clear and no fowl smell.



If a picture worth a thousand words, a video must worth millions... :)

Cheers
