diy fish tank for aquaponics

Heres where my system is at going into mid May, I just got finished placing some of my left over expanded shale into the area around the pump house and barrel filters. I placed some above ground plastic edging at the boarder of the ground tarps over to the greenhouse , and then used about 3 wheelbarrows full of shale to fill it in about 2" inches deep. I was in jeopardy of losing the weed block as it was beginning to deteriorate from the sun.

It turned out rather nice and provided good drainage for any rain water coming off the greenhouse.

I have also included a few pics of the raft system plants to show some of the growth that is going on.

I have five varieties of lettuce, which include Romain, and bibb. Just wish I had more growing.

 I also have squash and cucumber plants in the raft systems which seem to being doing "Just OK", but really havent taken off yet.

Here is a quick overview video of the entire greenhouse setup, inlcuding the DWC Raft and new nursery plant rafts.

Until Next time....
