As for the living wall, I lost the link, but it's not too hard to figure. I would need a few things before I finagle it. A tarp, burlap, something to use as a frame to hold the whole thing together ( i was going to use some left over shelves, but those are now serving as my tanks), some thin wire to sew the edges in, and finally a vinyl gutter to catch the water and dump it back into the tank. Oh, and some way to hang it, somewhere. I always forget that part:D Can you point me to what you…tag:aquaponicgardening.ning.com,2013-03-20:4778851:Comment:4526032013-03-20T19:35:01.634ZMichael Welberhttps://aquaponicgardening.ning.com/profile/MichaelWelber

Yes I did. Unfortunately, my pumps are not quite up to snuff to actually do what I wanted:-/<br />

I just have grow beds and a variety of pots now.

<p>The biggest challenge with vertical aquaponics of any kind is distrobution of flow and collecting the water. I expect one of those wall things could be set up for aquaponics but it would be interesting to see what works well for water distrobution and collection and what turns into a dried out example of what didn't work and what turns into a wet sodden mass.</p>

<p>Carey has the only such 'living wall' type system that I know of here. Which doesn't mean at all that there aren't more of them! </p>
