100Tours Posted August 27, 2019 Share i have been running a small aquaponics set up for close on 3 years now. I have actually stopped even testing the water. All i do is feed the fish and fill it up with rain water every now and then and it works perfectly. i think if you go on a commercial scale you could have issues because you are overstocking your fish, but for me i use Koi and tilapia and i am not harvesting them so its all good Pictures please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pieter1 Posted August 27, 2019 Share I’m getting my chili plants back from the plant hotel today. Apparently one died after being re potted but the rest are good so I’m happy. Quite excited to get them back in the tent. Mousea 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long Wheel Base Posted August 28, 2019 Share My Habenero didnt survive the winter I had a capsicum and jalepeno plant that one of my dogs ate!!!! peppers and all. The jalepeno was too far gone. Managed to save the capsicum, caged it, protected it etc till it grew back and looked better, Removed the fencing and a day later it was nothing but a little twig sticking out the soil. weird dog!!!!!!!
