I own and operate an independent retail garden center in Hot Springs Arkansas. I have read Aquaponic Gardening by Sylvia Bernstein and I have cleared out a corner in my green house to start an aquaponics system! I have obtained three IBC totes and have cut them into two grow beds and a sump tank, and a fish tank. My first system seems to be doing great, because of pitfalls I avoid with help from this site.
