So I haven’t been as good about writing my blog posts lately but at least the aquaponics systems seem to get along just fine with little attention provided the system is well designed and balanced. Things can still go wrong but for the most part the aquaponics system needs just a quick glance each day . . . → Read More: Life gets busy but Aqupaponics is easy
So I’ve been spending hours trying to figure out how to make a fish cam. Well it isn’t the fish cam itself that is frustrating me. It is how to get it up on the web that I’m struggling with.

Well, after cleaning out the dead fish and leaving the system pump constantly and running flooded beds for several days as well as some extra pumping and filtration, the water is still a little cloudy but I decided it was time to put in some test pilots. I moved 4 fish from the other system . . . → Read More: 300 gallon update
Ya know my post yesterday? I spoke too soon. I have now experienced a total fish kill in a system. Let me explain.
