Aquaponics Version 2

After contemplating the initial design, I thought that the one plant tank was a little small.

This version uses the same one pump to send the fish water to a holding tank that sits atop the pump cabinet which waterfalls into two plant  tanks, each of which have a waterfall drain back into the fish tank which will be below grade.  The tanks will be trimed with 2x bench stock and slate stones as appropriate.

Not a heck more work to double the planting space.  We are getting close to the final version
 
 



The SketchUp program that I designed this with is available free on-line and is really worth taking the time to download and learn.  My knowledge is rudimentary, but I plan to stick with it.
