<p>Maybe that's the reason for the titanium oxide paint. Also, if you are going to grow to sell, growing on all sides of a single tower would either necessitate 360 degrees of lighting, or 270 degrees of substandard or unsaleable product on your tower.<br/><br/><br/></p>

Again, good marketing and assimilation have prevailed. The design flaws have been pointed out for a year now on YouTube and various other aquaponics related web forums...I'll give you the easiest one that doesn't involve any scientific detail...Square objects only reflect light evenly all day long if the world was square. The rest of the flaws, well, let go of your cognitive dissonance and seek the information if it's really that important to you.

I know that if I was selling my own product, I guaran-damn-tee that I wouldn't post a single video or blog page pointing out any problems, I'd only post videos and blogs of positive, positive, positive things. That's called marketing, and good marketing results in assimilation.

Cognitive dissonance sure does bring out the best in people, ZipGrow and Bright Agrotech are on their way to being a popular religion in the aquaponics scene. Again, I still pose the same question..did they happen to disclose any of the disadvantages (aka: design flaws) of those towers, or did they only tell you all of the wonderful things (in their, I'm sure, totally unbiased opinion)? After all, the person who started this thread wanted opinions. Why lambast me for having an opposite opinion?…

<p>Max, Max,<br></br>No one is stopping You from going out and designing Your own system and spending Your $$ on it. If You have the skills and desire to do so, please do so. Please don't begrudge someone from going the commercial route. Bright Agrotech have their reputation on the line and any body who doesn't ask for references before spending big bucks ought to have their head examined.

Bright Agrotech have their reputation on the line and any body who doesn't ask for references before spending big bucks ought to have their head examined.

<p>And no I haven't been to Bright Agrotech's facility nor do I work for Bright Agrotech. I know by the quality of their information that they are legit. Besides, they are open for questions.</p>
<p>I have designed built several different systems.

<p>Actually it was a pretty straightforward presentation describing how to use the towers and didn't push theirs much until near the end (as I remember it). The whole set of presentations were sales presentations but also helpful. I started raising BSF larvae after seeing one (but didn't buy their expensive Pod). The worm presentation was very good too but have my own worm bin. </p>

<p>I compared building my own towers with PVC pipes but discovered that they would be too heavy for the supports I have and really not much less costly than the Zip Grow Towers. I bought it after seeing the video from the Aquaponics Fest. And, yeah, it was effective marketing. </p>

Sounds to me like that marketing and assimilation worked...Cognitive dissonance always guarantees me responses exactly like this when I point out how well their marketing method works.
