Hi Troy,
We never connected after we posted on each-others comment wall a couple months ago. I'm still interested in talking sometime if you are. I'd love to see your system if you're open to it.
Yes I do. It is still mainly assembled. I've detached the stainless steel coils and stored them in a box. The main assemble is mounted on a wooden board and that will have to be unattached to the wall in my greenhouse.
The manufacturer will honor a year warranty that began this last May.
Thanks Troy. Your beds look great.
Sure I'd love to show it off. Give me a call sometime: 608-338-9011
Hey Troy nice set up what type of plastic did you use to line your grow beds?
Welcome Troy,
Thanks for joining the Aquaponic Gardening community! I hope you find it a fun place to explore aquaponics. There is a real blend of experienced and new aquapons in this community, so please don’t hesitate to get in there and start asking questions. Everyone is quite happy to help out new members – no question is too basic.
A great place to start is to read the “How to Use This Site” link on the upper right corner,
“Start Here” section of the Home page. You might also find the “Aquaponic Gardening Rules of Thumb” guidelines helpful.
Please add a profile image, participate and check in with us every day! We are constantly posting news about aquaponics and the good food movement.
Normally Sylvia Bernstein, the community's founder, would be welcoming you, but she is vacationing in Japan and I am helping out by welcoming new members in her absence. I am certain she would be excited to have you join and she will be looking forward to getting to know you upon her return.
Thanks again for joining us, and I too look forward to getting to know you too. See you around the site!
