If so, what type of system? (pick all that apply): I am setting up an indoor aquaponic system, using flood and drain. My homemade fish tank has approximately 350 gallons of water right now (it can hold more). Currently I have 4 grow beds, 3 of which I just planted with tomatoes, strawberries and lettuce. I am using hydrokorn as the growing media in the 3 beds and plan on using 3/4" gravel in the 4th to compare. I am using LED lights, I am still working out the appropriate distance from the grow beds - still learning... I have not added fish yet, I am waiting until I get the chemistry right.

I saw from Murrays blog email sent out that you had them at the show. I would have liked to have gone but just couldn't. What can you tell me about growing with them? Are those 600watt output units you have? Do you know what the lumen amount from them is?
