I can see the logic in a chop 2 design now and a reason for a sump tank. Thanks TC AND CHI

Ask how much load the floor will take. Figure about 10lbs/gal. that goes for tank and grow bed. You might want a low long tank to distribute the weight of the water vs a tall tank. Just something to think about.

<p>A sump tank is normally the lowest tank in the system.</p>
<p><br></br>It can deal with water level fluctuations so the fish tank doesn't need to fluctuate so much.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I was thinking more along the lines of the 400 gallon fish tank and say 8 100 gallon grow beds or perhaps 16 50 gallon grow beds.</p>

You say 400 gallon F&D system. Does that mean 400 gallons of fish tank? Can you have a sump tank? I would aim for 800 gallons total of grow beds if you can.

<p>The dimensions are as follows:</p>
<p>greenhouse 2 parts (1/2 = prep room 15' X 57'/ other 1/2 = actual floor space 15'X57') rooftop deck (57' X 30')</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm thinking 400 gallon flood drain system/ some strawberry towers.. beyond this i'm at a loss.</p>
