Wow that is really some great growth.

I am not sure if your good at using any drawing diagrams but I have been trying to dig up as much as I can to start a aquaponics system for my youngest son and I to play with.

The biggest thing I am looking for is the most efficient way to move the water from tank to tank and keep it clean. With fishandworms system he has air pumps, water pumps, automatic solid waste removal units worth $4000.

I am just looking for a nice little hobby for my boy and I with out droppping a lot of money because in a few years it may all be sitting.

We are going to put in $2000 to $2500 for this project and have most of the parts. Just looking at an efficient design of water flow and filtering. Different elevations of tanks. Thinking of using venturis for air if we are pumping water and or air lift to move the water. Maybe this is a bad idea only having one system maybe a backup.

Cheers Don.
