| I noticed that the racks are starting to tilt in a bad way so I am going to fix that problem before it causes a disaster... |
| I finished the first rack and moved it to the garden area. I also put in the barrels. Hope to get gravel in them today and get the next rack started. Need it done by the 29th. |
| I have now gotten a pump and a float valve for the tank. Had kinda nice day so I dug the hole for the tank and put it in the hole. Little tough digging. It was like digging a well because I hit water at about 15" deep. I just dug faster than the water came in and finally got to about 24" deep and put the tank in the hole. A couple of trys but it fit finally. Now I am filling the tank with river water so the fish will have the enzymes that is needed to start fish. The water is close so I just pumped it in with my old system pump. |
| Here is the beginning of the new project. An Aqua Ponic Garden. This tank is 1100gallons and will be sunk into the ground so only about 5 or 6 inches will show. Hope the water will hold this one in the ground. My previous garden had problems when the water was pumped out to the garden the tank would float up when it was wet. Arkansas gets soggy when it rains. It is wet now so it is off to build the stands for the barrels. I bought 24 barrels and will split them lengthwise to make gravel beds with. Should make quite a garden. |
