@@charleswieand4445 Sounds great. Any links to how they run their systems?
I just started following you and now you're tearing up the whole system. I can watch your older videos but can't wait for the new system and see what you are doing with your yard. It's people like you who make watching TH-cam worth while. Thanks mate.
Will be heading out to work on the new system after I answer a few more comments. I hope to have a clip up on the build in a week or so time all going well Jonathan.
This playlist might have a few clips that interest you if you're new to aquaponics,

@@RobsAquaponics im glad i read this comment.. I thought this is the end of ur hydroponics project.. Cant wait for the new system..
@@norhamizahshaiffuddin2856 Will be working on it this week if we don't get too much rain. 👍
I've been loosely following you for years,and will continue, whatever your content is...you sir, are a pioneer!
Thanks Moe. Hope to have some more aquaponics clips up soon.
Cheers & have a top one.
G'day mate. So glad to see that you are not giving up on your gardening adventures - just renovating things. I've enjoyed your channel for a number of years now. Thank you for the terrific content. You channel is a shining example of why I love TH-cam. It enriches my life. Keep up the good work.
Hi FLgardener & thanks for the kind words. 👍
Cleared out a lot of the soil patch this weekend & will cracking on with the new aquaponics system tomorrow when things cool down a bit here.
Cheers & happy growing. 🌱👍
I am very sorry and sad to hear about your decision.
I have been gardening for a few years, discovering your channel inspired me to start building my own aquaponics system. I am planning to build a 20 000 liter fish tank, can you suggest how big (how many liters) my grow beds and deep water culture beds should be? One grow bed holds 540 liters. How big should the bio filter and solid waste separator be?
Thank you for all the relevant information you have posted on your you tube channel, everything you present makes it easy to understand especially for a novice like myself. Therefore making it possible for me to build something amazing which otherwise I would never have attempted to build
Thank you
Martin from South Africa
Sounds like you're going commercial Martin. All the sizing for your system's components will be based around the amount of feed you'll be adding into the system when the fish are at their largest size. The reason being is that the media beds & biofilter will need to be able to process the amount of ammonia produced at that time. From there you can work backwards with the amount of m² of growing space & plant numbers to take up the nitrate that's produced at that time.
For solids removal, most of the settlers will require 20min retention time in commercial-sized systems to keep the fines out from the DWC beds. You may also want to consider an additional fines filter before these beds just to make sure.
Hope that info helps some.
Am still doing aquaponics & just showed the layout for our small temporary system in today's clip if you're interested in checking it out, th-cam.com/video/VbXKSP8jt9k/w-d-xo.html
Cheers.
Thanks mate happy aquaponics
I’d love to buy your book, in the future. After the effort that you’d put into it, you should rightfully have some reward. Nothing in life is free.
Thanks Julie. Am working on a PDF for folks looking to start out in aquaponics but finding the time to finish it off is a bit challenging.
Cheers & have a top one.
Everything in life could be much more free than it is, the idea that nothing in life is free is a horrid mindset. We have to get rid of this mindset to improve.
I'm happy for you that your remodeling🤗😊. I really appreciate you, honestly I've learned so much and really enjoy watching you.
👍
So you're pulling the system, not the style of use..... **whew**
Brother, you scared me. At the same time, I kind of had this thought of you doing a complete teardown when you folks had gotten to the renovation of the kitchen & you showed an overview of the yard from the balcony. I said, "he's going to tear that whole thing down & start over."
Don't know how long it takes for the book, but I'll be waiting. & since I'm subscribed, I'm looking forward to your next video, regardless of what the content is.
Thanks for all.the help, advice & education. Cheers brother...✊🏾
Is great to hear the clips & posts have helped DeadFred. 👍😁
I'm not sure if the book will be good enough to publish but will be letting folks know on the channel here if it does become available.
Cheers & happy growing mate. 🙂🌱🌱
Thanks Rob Bob,
All the best
in the future...
Still doing aquaponics & you can suss out the videos of the current system here Ian,

Cheers mate & have a top one.
You have changed my life for the better! Thank you for your knowledge! I love watching your videos! 🫶🏻
I'm glad they have helped in some way Lorinda. I hope to have an aquaponics ginger harvest video posted this weekend if that interests you at all. 😁👍
Rob, thank you for your time and appreciate all that you have shared with us, some people would complain about a free lunch , no help for them is there , you do what you like and do what you need to do to provide for your family ,!
Again thank you from just one of the thousands of your followers!!!
Thanks Bill. Will need to make this pay for itself soon as my "home duties" will be ending in 2 years time. Would like to do some form of aquaponics education full time so will need to see what I can work out between now & than.
Cheers & all the best Bill. 👍👍
Big Rob ... so you scare us ... I am your fan since here in Brazil ... I am rooting for you to come back in full force with your system ... I am expanding my system and made an 8,000 liter ferrocement tank ... this week I'm setting up the new cultivation beds ... come back soon with your system my master ... a big hug, lots of health and success always !!!
Wow, that's a huge expansion mate. 👍 Our temporary one will be a fraction of that size. 😉
Will be posting a clip on the small system here in a week or so. Was hopping to work on it this week but the weather & family commitments stopped me. 😓
Cheers & happy building mate.
You are inspiring, since returning home this year I have chopped up my IBCs and built my worm farm, reed bio filters and chicken coop. Looking forward to seeing both our projects completed
Nice one Lee. 👍 We're still tossing up where the chooks are going to be fit into the design here.
Cheers & happy growing.
You scared the shit out of me man you can't do that to people your like the only diy hydroponics guy
Potent Ponics, check them out. Murray, purdue university aquaponics. Another channel is apmeds. there is crazy commercial ops doing salmon and cannabis now, almost perfectly... shown on potent ponics today jan 26, 2020
thx for this answer, the vod confused me saying to stop and then plan another
I can say Rob is the only one I watch for hydroponics.
Sorry about that mate. Just trying to get some subscribers that don't check in often to have a gander at what's going on here.
Cheers & thanks for the support mate. 👍👍
@@tkgcreations3247 Am glad the clips are helping you out with a few ideas.
Cheers mate
Thanks for the updates Rob! Your channel was my initial inspiration from years ago! I've redone my basement aquaponics system several times towards the elusive goal of getting the system dialed in... Started with a chop and flip rain barrel which is great for an outdoor spring/summertime project here in Virginia - the fish had to be moved indoors for the winter so they wouldn't be in a solid barrel of ice!. Used them in the basement with grow lights but the solids load from a pump in the tank directly up to the grow bed can't be ignored. Finally got a 100 gallon sump with 50 gallon grow bed and 50 vertical grow towers and everything is humming along after adding the moving media bed, swirl filters and protein skimmer. I learned from aquarium keeping that everything you do from a filtration stand point only buys time for the water changes and media flushing to remove the solids and excess salts. I look forward to your system rebuilds in the future. Good luck on the renovations!
Nice one Shaun. 👍
Will be posting an update on the new jobbie soon.
Happy growing. 🌱👍
Hopefully we see you back in action, my journey just begun and your channel inspired my recent endeavours. Til then work smarter not harder, cheers mate 👍
The new system has been up & running for a few months now & have posted a few clips on it.

Hey, you keep doing what you need to, people who complain may not ever have been though renovation. I have, and it is not fun, things take time and money so, those complainers need to just chil......
Keep up the good work
God bless you
Hi G Vas & thanks mate.
Hope all's well with you & yours. 👍
Thank you for all, Rob! Thinking of you and your family, hope to see more and maybe even improved (?) aquaponics as your plans unfold. I really appreciate all your insight and experience, and wish you the best. Cheers!
Hope to have a aqua update posted this coming weekend Andrew.
Thanks & cheers mate.
Hello, from central Georgia, USA! Trying to keep up. I am a new subscriber. So glad, you're just adjusting the garden. I am so eager to learn more about aquaponics.
Hi Robin. Hope you find the clip helpful. This playlist is a great place to start if you haven't seen it already,

I was scared to death when this video posted I've been watching your videos for years and I believe that you are the go to Aquaponics guy for building your own system for home use please keep up the great work you do. I learned everything from your videos I appreciate everything you have done please keep up the hard work
Will have an update of sorts on the new system this weekend all going well Jonathan.
Cheers mate.
Rob, you mastered aquaponics and shared a journey that is a gift to us. Hope you're well!

Sometimes you just have to do a deep clean and start over. I was also concerned you were quitting but I feel better now. Thanks for all the great info.
I was hopping to have an update on the new system this weekend but am not sure that the weather wants to cooperate.
Cheers Harry & have a great one.
Hey mate, good to see everything is still full steam ahead. Looking forward to see what goodies you produce now in the temp beds and what the next 12 months has install for you
Thanks Steve. Will also be setting up a wicking barrel system as well in a few weeks.👍
Hope all's well with you folks down there mate.
Cheers.
I've been a semi commercial aquaponics guy in Alice Springs for over 7 years. I've done Murray hallums course and love your content. Thank you for taking the time to make your experiences available to us plebs, you have given me the confidence to push ahead despite some setbacks.
Appreciate everything you do, Rob. Very educational! Have learned a lot from you and will continue to follow you here in Oregon. Good day, mate. Keep up the good work!!
Thanks Joshua. Will have an up[date on the new aquaponics system this coming weekend.
Cheers & happy growing.
Why the change.? This is so much great information. Thanks for sharing all of the concerns and ideas!
Am still growing aquaponically, just needed to pull the system down to make way for something better.

Im glad your not stopping stopping. Enjoy your videos, very educational and entertaining. Big up from Trinidad, Caribbean
Thanks Kerry.
Would like to be out there working on it today but it's raining (which I'm not complaining about 😉) & don't have the room to film it for you all to suss out later.
Hopefully next week I'll have something posted on it.
Cheers.
Your the Best Bob, thank you for all your inspiration, best to you and your family. Looking forward to your next video, just love you.
Thanks Patricia.
All the best to you & yours as well. 👍🙂
I'm really interested in the sand bed idea.
The easy availability of sand around here appeals to me for a start.
Googling it gives other claimed advantages too.
Seems like Gary Donaldson is an advocate, and he is very experienced in the area.
I just found your channel and I appreciate your Aussie sense of humour 😁🇦🇺 but most of all, your practical skills and experience in Aquaponics.🤩
I am looking to build an inground fish pond surrounded with grow beds for veggies in the very near future.
Your videos have given me a better understanding of the implications and requirements.
Much appreciated. 👍👋
Nice one Silvia. 👍 Hope the build has gone well for you mate. 🌱🌱🐟
😱Bro! what are you doing ? You have so much valuable information. thank you for sharing it . Hope you make a comeback . New and improved aquaponics systems✌
Just put 31 fish in the new system yesterday so is all good here 👍😉
Thank you Rob for your fabulous instructive videos. good luck with the house and yard renovations. hope you come back soon enough.
Haven't left & will be posting a clip on the new system soon Julian. 👍
Cheers & have a great one.
WOW Rob! What a fresh start you are doing!! I am inspired! Doing my own fresh start this year but nowhere near as big as yours! Can't wait to see when you are up & running again. Thanks for your videos!
Will have a clip on the new system posted to the channel this weekend Nik. 👍
Cheers.
Glad to hear that you will be doing aquaponics in the future. You had me a bit scared. I really love your videos! Thanks for sharing :)
Cheers Benja 👍👍
:(
Glad that I could learn so much with your system Rob.
I wish the best for you. Thank you so much.
guifercon it’s going to be great to see his new system isn’t it!
@@bencasey3949
Sure it will!
But still there's a strange homesick feeling. :)
I know what you mean guifercon. I Keep trying to hear the water whenever I go out the back.
Was hoping to have a clip up on the new build this week but it's a bit wet to film at the moment. Might be next weekend if this dry out a bit next week.
Cheers & have a top one.
Feel free to stop by if you're in town Ben.
Thanks again for all the support too mate, means a load to the family. 👍
You getting any of this rain ?
Cheers mate.
You are a king amongst men fella.
I will share as much as I can Rob.
Thanks Neil. Really appreciate the support mate.
Cheers & have a top one.
Hi Rob, haven't been on the tube lately, but your title made me watch. Whew! What a job taking it down, but you need to do what is best. I like how you're saving the clay and bio-media. Hope all is well with the renovation and your family. I had a bit of a personal/family setback & as far as my garden I'm now finally tackling some weeding and planting bunches of greens. Take care friend.
Hi Robin. Hope it wasn't too large a setback & things are getting better for you now.
I've pretty much cut back my online time to YT & the odd FB post now. Don't do much personal browsing anymore either. Just found I spent far too many productive hours scrolling the feed.
Hope things warm up for you soon, but not too much. 😉
Cheers & all the best.
Was na early adopter and sadly lost track with aquaponic since I relocated. Glad I caught this update and looking forward to seeing the new system running. Best of luck for the future Rob 👍🏻
Thanks Jason. So far the new system is going great guns. Fish aren't feeding much as it's winter here at the moment.
Cheers & have atop one.
Hi Rob. Always enjoy your videos. You still have a lot of hard work ahead. I compleetly swiched to wicking bed and grow bags because with having a full time job the aquaponics is suffering to much neglect. Thanks for all the info you give freely. Strongs with the work ahead.
I totally get that Victor & you have to do what works best for you. 👍 I've had thoughts about tossing it in while we were renovating the house but I think that was mainly due to having cabin fever around at the cottage.
Cheers mate & happy growing. 🌱🌱
you are my number 1 model for hydroponics thank you so much for your generosity
Cheers mate.
You gave a quite a scare. I rely on you input for me to start my aquaponic system. Glad to hear that you will be putting in a new one in and we get to follow you on your adventure.
Hope to be doing some more work on it today once I catch up on a few more comments Daniel.
Cheers mate.
Always a pleasure to watch your videos Rob and I can vouch that no one is missing out. Keep it up 👍🏻
Thanks Mr Andy.
Hope all's well you you mate.
@@RobsAquaponics pleasure, all good this side thanks Rob 😁
The one thing I can rely on with this site is honesty. This means that I can learn so much more from Rob's videos because--whatever happens--Rob always tells you STRAIGHT: This is what happened, and this is why. When he makes mistakes he admits it and lets me in to his thinking about how to do things better--so l can learn, not so much what to do, but how to apply his knowledge to my own situation. Through success or failure we get to see Rob's diehard problem solving being applied in a context that includes the constraints of time, money, and family commitments: The real world factors we all have to deal with--messily, in the moment--and which, for most of us, are just as influential in determining the choices we make as the logic of a technically optimal "system design". You are a bloody inspiration mate.
Thanks for the kind words Rob. 👍 The current build has been slowed down a bit due to the weather so it will be next week before any clip of substance gets posted on it.
Cheers & have a top one Rob.
this was great to see, but certainly a pain to carry out. Hope is well and the reno is goings smoothly.
Hose is fairly much finished for now. Just waiting on some landscapers to finish off a few bits then we'll be setting up a dedicated aquaponics area.
Have you seen the present system we have on the go?
th-cam.com/play/PLBcWprMIwYYhxrXIEidBYPP4Nk0uxtK8w.html
Cheers mate.
I agree...got scared you were headin out. Love the content. Good luck with the reno.
New starts let you start small again and remember how fun the first system is. Cheers.
I'm really looking forward to getting some more soil beds in as well Peter. Need to get ready for the winter broccoli & caulie's as I find they do much better in soil.
Cheers mate & happy growing.
Ill go back and watch. Get this. You inspired me so i went out and found 6 containers. Just doing one to get a little experience. I have a water cooler. It gets hot here. Hopefully you can ramp back up. After you settle the renovations. Thanks
Just started following and planning my first aquaponics set up.
U got me worried for a moment.
Looking forward to seeing the next set up and your book!

Hi Ed & thanks mate. 👍 Will be a few more to come yet I think. 😉
Cheers & have a top one.
Thanks for the video. A year ago we purchased a ranch in southern california with around 200 fruit trees. I have been thinking about how we might become quite self sufficient with little effort. I would really like to have fish for food and chickens for eggs. I'm not sure if hydroponics is too much work. My goal is to make life as easy as possible. All the fruit trees are set up on auto irrigation, so I am looking to take advantage of the space between the trees to grow other food. My focus is on "the super foods" like spinach, swiss chard, broccoli, onion. I also want to try to grow rice and papyrus. We have a seasonal stream and pond down in the valley, but last year it dried out around mid summer. Maybe I can build something to channel water from the creek that I can put on the sprinkler system when the creek and pond dry up.
Hi Rob, love your videos, the information you supply is fantastic and I have based my first ( very new) system of it. Thanks heaps for the help you so unselfishly give everyone. Looking forward to seeing your next video. Thanks again. Steve
Am glad they've helped you some Steve. 👍😁
Hope the system is growing well.
Cheers mate & happy growing.
I've only recently became interested in aquaponics, but do have a small back yard that I believe will house a wonderful aquaponics setup, well it's my plan to begin anyway, largely due to your videos I believe I can do it... thank you!
Hey brother. Much love from Fraser Coast! Thanks to your vids myself and my boys are undergoing a simple aquaponics system over the Easter hols! Fyi used to install underground fiberglass pools... heat gun is your friend! If ever you run close to the ibt structure just heat and put a screw driver or suitable object to manipulate the pipe once warm... problem solved with minimum flow disruption! Cheers heaps!
Cheers for that Jarra.
Hope the build went smoothly. 👍👍
Very watchable. Looking forward to seeing you're new install 👍

Looks like an awesome plan! Looking forward to seeing it all come together over the next year or so. Cheers!
Hope to have an update clip on the small system this weekend mate.
Cheers Gavin.
G’day from Oklahoma here. Some times we come up with some fun stuff that do well but it can be a great thing to take it all down and re-build from scratch. From everything you have learned you will do things 100X better and be even happier. I speak from experience with resent my removing a large Aquaponics system myself. Have a good day and blessings to you in your endeavors of getting your yard how you want it.
Hi TBA & thanks. Was planing to get some more work done on it this week but the wet weather has changed my plans for the time being. Hope to get an update clip out next week all going well.
Cheers.
I love the idea of Aquaponics and have been watching TH-cam videos about it for almost 3 years saw and learned and saw something new today after watching your video .. You are really an inspiration to a lot of people .. Much love from India!Hope we see more content soon

Hey buddy, I know we haven't touched base in many years but I've been watching you and your system all the way back since it started, back in the BYAP forum days :D, I was Abdul there, the one from Pakistan.
Sad to see such an old and fruitful be taken down, but great to see you are moving on to bigger and better things.
Hope life gives you many more harvests, and happiness that each year exceeds the last years happiness, God bless, keep posting! :D
Hi Abdul & thanks mate. 👍
Hows your system going at the moment? Are you still on the BYAP forum? I don't visit there much anymore.
Cheers mate & all the best to you & yours. 😊
Love the info you've given so far, can't wait for you to get it back up n running
Will be back with an aqua clip in a few weeks ;)
Cheers. 👍
The 4 idiots who thumbed down this video are the But Hurt losers who dare to complain about not getting everything for free. Some people need a clip up the Head for there lack of manners,. Keep up the good work Rob. Your an inspiration to all, and have taught me soooo much.

It's hard to see you finish your system. I saw some your videos not all, learned from it, felt that you do and say the right things, liked your explain, very thank you, wish you to do what want and what you like, don't say to you good bye but say see again. mohamed from EGYPT
can't wait to see for the new system, we wish you all goes well
Thanks Maryanto. Will be popping out there soon to start working on it. 👍

Love the update. Was little scared since I am using info to help build an experimental indoor unit. Your videos are amazing!
Will be posting on Aquaponics for a few more years yet Carrie.
Hope the system build is coming along well.
Thanks for the clip Rob! Sometime to improve upon a system you have to completely tear down the old one and start over. I've done it once with an AP system but the concept applies to any kind of system. Don't worry about the content of the clips to much, many of us just love watching the journey. It's real and reality isn't always perfect, we just love that you share it with us. Cheers, until the next one...
Am glad you're still enjoying the clips after all this time Subedei. 😊😊
I'm thinking I'll be posting a very soggy walk around clip this week if the rain doesn't let up. Not that I'm complaining about the rain, we definitely need as much as we can get at the moment. 😉
Cheers & all the best.

Have a few clips up on the system now if you felt like sussing them out.

Woowww...hope you share the renovation process and new setup

Cheers.
Always like watching your videos Rob, very informative and easy to follow
Thanks folks. 😁
Cheers & all the best.
Just stumbled upon this today and watched several videos, great channel for sitting out the corona quarantine! Good luck with your new system. :)
Thanks Melissa. So far it's doing really well. 👍👍
Started a playlist if you're interested in the progress so far.

Thanks Rob! That fish trap works like a charm... Used one made out of a 2 liter soft drink bottle a few times to catch Tilapia.
I wouldn't mind taking a few down the river to see what I can catch. Just need to make sure that I won't be breaking any laws first. ;)
Cheers. 👍
Keep the good work. You are my inspiration to set a pond/aquaponic system
Cheers Orlando.
Hope the build goes well for you.
Howdy and g’day Rob from England, UK.🏴🇬🇧
Hey Jim. 👍
Hope winter is treating your garden/system well mate.
Cheers.
Backing you all they way...Posts to paying members is only right, rebuilding your AQ is the most exciting upcoming video and educational program for 2020 and the old system was totally inspirational.
Please keep on keeping on and, if I can develop an income of any sort, I will surely get into the Farm Your Own Backyard site...
Meantime...hanging out for that PDF and still reckon a full on best selling book should be in the offing.
Hi Frank & thanks mate. 👍 Are you getting any of this rain at the moment?
Cheers & all the best mate.
Good luck, Rob! I know it must have been a tough decision, but will work out for the best in the long run.
Can't wait to see the evolution of your rig. Better days are good to hear about.
Will have an update clip posted this coming weekend. 😉
Cheers mate.
Wheeu... that you were calling it quits for good.
Glad to hear that your planning on revisiting it.
Should have a clip on the small system up in a week or two Eric.
Cheers mate.
Thank you for the update! Can't wait to see what you do next!
Should have a clip on the new build posted in a few weeks time. 👍
Cheers Rose.
Don’t worry about what a few people think. You have been a great source of information over the years of watching your videos. You’re a great teacher and a great communicator so please just hang in there. Great luck to you buddy!
Cheers Steve. This video is from a few years back & I've had another system running for a few years now.

Thay playlist should have most of the videos from this current build.
I figured you’d be back. Once a teacher always a teacher. I look forward to watching and learning much more from you.
Do you get that feeling there's going to be a dirty big snake under what ever you're lifting every time you have to move something like the IBC? Being Australia there is always a good chance.
😂🤔 More so than you'd think Big K.😅
Had more than a few close calls on the farm with Red Belly Blacks coming into the cabin as a kid. Have had a very healthy respect for all things that slither ever since.
Cheers mate.
Very excited for you and your renovations! Also, can't wait to see how you set it back up. Keep us updated on your book, wouldn't mind paying for your experience and knowhow!
Will have an update clip of sorts on the new system in a few weeks I think.
Not sure if I'll be selling the book but will be mentioning it in a clip if I do so. 👍
Have a great one.
Can't wait to see what you do in the future
This is the playlist for the current system if you're interested CS,

You do what you got to do. This is your journey share it how you need to etc.
Have included a look at the the new system design at the end of this weeks clip ippaku. 👍
Am hoping to have a more detailed look posted next weekend if the weather clears up a bit this week.
Cheers.
Man I just got people in the states to start watching you sir. I would buy the book if you publish one. I went back and watched all your videos. I’m going to keep waiting on watching for videos from you. Be safe sir.
Maybe one day Aaron. I am working on a PDF download that will help a lot of beginners out. Is taking a while though due to being fairly busy.
Cheers & happy growing. 👍
Rob Bob's Aquaponics & Backyard Farm I would definitely buy it sir. I showed some of your videos to the aquaponics class at the college I teach at. The instructor added some of them to his lesson plan. I am definitely a beginner.
@@bethbrown4602 That's great to hear Aaron. 😁 Always good to know that the clips are helping in some way.
Thanks for sharing interesting videos. It gave me a glimpse of Aquaponic systems.
No problem mate👍
Hope you've been enjoying the clips on the new system we have on the grow as well.
Cheers & have a top one.
Rob Bob's Aquaponics & Backyard Farm
Hi, Rob. I’m wondering why you don’t use craft tanks to grow plants instead? What do you think about the productivity of the system? Thanks
What is the depth of your media beds? They all seem to be a constant height. Keep up with all the excellent videos.
They are about 300mm/1ft deep Brent. I was running them as constant height at the end but did have them as flood & drain for the majority of their life.
Cheers mate & have a good one.
I'm new to the channel, but it's been a real pleasure watching and learning from your videos. I hope to soon have a aquaponics system myself here in Texas
Hope the build goes well for you Layton.
Cheers mate. 👍
I am really missing your regular garden videos. Hope you get everything sorted soon, cheers!
So do I. Buying food is a pain in the wallet. 😔
Cheers mate.
Good luck with the new build and God Blesd
Would like to be out there working on it today but need to dig some drain ditches instead Lisa.
Such is......
I sincerely hope all goes well with all your doing to recreate your yard. I'm looking forward to seeing it once it's completed🤗😊😁 yeh a cheezy smile for you too. I appreciate every DIY videod and all the updates you've given . I'm looking forward to seeing it all when your done😊. Thank you for everything you've done and shared, sincerely Lisa🤗😊
Watching from philipines i hope the new aqua system build earlier than expected
You can check out our current system here mate,

Cheers & all the best.
I started out with the chop and flip barrel you posted. It worked really well, and I also used it to breed like a million+ springtails in the grow bed to feed my dart frogs.
Eventually I got addicted to the fish aspect of it and now have multiple fish tanks and no aquaponics :D
Nice one Casey. Do you raise the fish for sale or just for fun?
@@RobsAquaponics Just for fun at the moment. But have been having some good luck breeding already :) Bought a few honey gouramis on the 10th of this month, and a week later had a few hundred babies. They're REALLY easy to breed!
You shock me sir, but I'm sure you only made it much better than before.
The system I'm working on at the moment will be very basic but the larger one to be built later will be a bit more involved. 👍
Have a top one Go Green.
Good luck with all you've got planned and God bless you and your family ☺
Thanks Lisa. We're slowly getting there.
Will be building the new aquaponics area very soon as the landscaping in the rest of the patch is almost finished.
I'm not sure if we'll be moving the fish over from the current system or if I'll get a batch of new fingerlings.... 🤔
Cheers & all the best to you & yours.
Love ur clips..watch religiously..have learned much.. always ready for ur next clip..hope all is well.. cheers to u down under!
All's well here thanks Lisa as I hope it is with you. 👍
Will be posting a look at the new aquaponics in a week or two.
Cheers & have a top one.
I can't afford to pay you , but I really appreciate all you share, for those of us whove not got much, I sincerely appreciate you
& I appreciate that you stop by every clip for a chat Lisa. 😁😁👍 Knowing that folks are getting something from the clips that will help them out is what makes me want to keep filming.
All the best to you & yours. 👍👍
Hi Rob. PVC pipe is very easy to heat and custom bend should you need to. Good luck. :)
Cheers Gary. Have played around with bending pipes a bit but always find thew collapse a bit at the bend. Probably need to change my method.
Cheers mate.
