Hit me up if you come around. I am an active member of the New Hampshire Aquarium Society but and starting to put all my focus into family and aquaponics. Possibly leaving hobby aquaria alone for awhile. This all started with three gold fish in a 10g tank. I still have one of them and it now lives out side in the pond I built. Thanks and your set up looks real nice. If I have to settle for indoor growing for awhile I would like a set up like yours. As you can see by my pics I am progressing.

Just curious if there were any way to soften water without importing it. I am on a well. Love your setup. Take care. Dave

Everyone is quite happy to help out new members – no question is too basic.
