Introduction

The purpose of this blog is for me to take all the information I learn about aquaponics (or a percentage) and put it to use. I figure that if I get it out into the open and publish it I will actually do something with it. As of right now it is only a theory but I have hopes in it becoming a reality. Over the last 15 years or so I have come across many things that have peeked my interests.. Including but not limited to electronics, Cars, Computers (much longer than 15 years) and anything technical. As of recent, I have begun broadening my horizon and have turned my passions to not only technical but other things such as aquaponics and building random things like desks etc. One day I hope to pursue the combination of all these things but sadly I'm not sure how it can happen :). I'm hoping to update every few days if not sooner. I spend a lot of time researching so I would really like to post each time I complete a session of research.. Good luck with that I tell myself but only time will tell.

The Dreaming Stage

As it gets closer and closer to building day I find myself in this dreaming stage. I have over 100 hours of research  crammed in my in my brain. There are a few questions are still tumbling around up there.

  • What size tank should I use? 
  • What plants should I grow? 
  • What type of Aquaponics setup should I use? 
  • What grow medium should I use? 
  • What should I eat for dinner?  
For the next few posts I am going to locate and categorize my research and put together as much as I so that you understand the thought process as well as the physical building process. I also wanted to let you know that I added an aquaponic supply store to this blog. I have posted a few items I think will help you create your own aquaponics system but I will be fine tuning this store as I get more used to the products and see what I like and what I don't. This is exciting to me because I want you to be able to purchase exactly what I do so you can have the same successful system I do. You might make some changes and I am sure mine won't be the greatest of all time but one thing I know for sure. IT WILL WORK!! Thats what matters right? Good vegetables and yummy fish to eat. Sorry for the short post tonight but I plan on getting to the planning stages tomorrow so there will be plenty of content coming soon.
