I'm setting up a Deep Water Culture Aquaponic System in the San Jose area of Costa Rica. Are you still doing aquaponics? Mine will be much bigger than your picure. I still need to purchase items for Aquaponics. Three major ones yet are a Regenerative Air Blower to force air into our system (and good air diffuser tubing), bio media like K3 for a moving bio tank (MBBR), and foam rafts (like the Beaver rafts or self made from DowCorning closed cell blue foam rafts). Any ideas? Thanks.

Let me know when it would ok with you. Thanks Mark, Also what kind of fish are you using in your system?

And how is your system working. I have only spoke with one other person here in Costa Rica that even knows what Aquaponics is thats Farmer Brown. Hope to hear from you Thanks Mark

The only drawback to any iron supplement is they will discolor your water, but that clears up after awhile.
