<p>Okay, so after a bit (more like a lot) of research. I have come up with what I think is a great design/setup. <img src="http://www.bkserv.net/images/Grin.gif"></img></p>
<p></p>
<p> I plan to use a standard IBC tote setup, but slightly upgraded.</p>
<p>this is how, I will cut off the top foot of the tote and invert it. However, this is the upgrade. At the same time i will be building a rabbit hutch as well. I will build the hutch lower to the ground then most. I will then Build a Floating growbed on top of the hutch.</p>

<p> I will use gravity to pull water from the tank into a swirl filter the skim the water to drain into the Floating grow bed. From there, down into a sump. This in where i will put a water pump (560 gph). To pump water up to the grow bed that sits on top of the tote tank, which will in turn drain back into the tank competing the cycle.</p>
<p>Please let me know what you guys think! </p>
<p>P.S.</p>
<p>I will be setting the tote on a platform to raise it of the ground about a foot and a half.</p>

<p>another rookie here. Got the IBC setup, pump just came in, but I need a connection before I can hook up the plumbing. As I've been assembling the parts, I've been thinking of questions, most of which have been answered by reading through these forum topics, but haven't seen an answer to one that I can think of right now.

<p>another rookie here. Got the IBC setup, pump just came in, but I need a connection before I can hook up the plumbing. As I've been assembling the parts, I've been thinking of questions, most of which have been answered by reading through these forum topics, but haven't seen an answer to one that I can think of right now. To wit: I will start out with the constant flow type of setup, but in drilling my holes in the standpipe (the one that will allow the water return from the grow bed to the fish tank), where should I start my holes? Even with the bottom of the grow bed or should I always keep a certain level of water in the grow bed, say 2 inches? 3 inches? or once I balance out the flow of the pump with the drain holes, it will naturally keep a certain level of water? I guess this might be more important if I was going with an ebb and flow system? Hope I've described my question well enough. Great forum.</p> Bumptag:aquaponicgardening.ning.com,2013-12-22:4778851:Comment:5378562013-12-22T17:36:59.352ZDanielhttps://aquaponicgardening.ning.com/profile/DanielSanner
