<p>The only time I encountered this type of problem, was a pre-cursor to losing a lot of fish. Even though I have 5 horizontal grow beds, the vast majority of my filtration is through my 12 vertical towers. I had over fed my fish, which in turn produced huge fish waste. The fish waste clogged my water lines to the vertical towers. It took about two days but the whole system went anarobic.

The fish waste clogged my water lines to the vertical towers. It took about two days but the whole system went anarobic. I ended up doing a 50% water change, after clearing the clogged lines--but the system was wacky. I used Nightout II, in the system, followed by photosynthis plus and nourish L, and within a week all numbers returned to normal. Smelling urine is bad. Just food for thought... I'm a huge subscriber to worm tea in my hydroponics systems, but for my aquaponics system I have red wigglers in all of my grow beds and they seem to add sufficient worm tea while doing their normal job.</p> You might have an anaerobic z…tag:aquaponicgardening.ning.com,2013-10-16:4778851:Comment:5240132013-10-16T14:50:38.716ZAlex Veidelhttps://aquaponicgardening.ning.com/profile/AlexVeidel
<p>You might have an anaerobic zone in your growbed (if you're using media). Or look around, maybe you've got a dead fish or something. Do a water test, if you've got excess waste levels, that could help pinpoint the problem.<br></br> <br></br> <cite>boats4906 said:…</cite></p>

<p>do you have fish in the system? have you tested the water? what are your parameters? sounds like you added way to much..</p>
