budget aquaponics :D

[Hex]

well ive just started my build, im going with a different plan but similar to the one in the link.

so i picked up a couple of under bed storage containers which are the ideal size for my build (£3.99 each) and ive just finished building a bell syphon into one of them (made from 21 and 40mm pvc tubing). currently very happy with the bell syphon as i was expecting it to be a much harder build. but after a couple of tweaks its emptying nicely in around 30-45 seconds

P1 ive been considering that lack of electricity at some point could be an issue, which is why im looking at a solar panel set up it will mean an initial outlay of a couple of hundred but will also mean that should the power go out ill have a small back up supply
