I joined up a few days ago and figured I would introduce myself. My name is Ed and I hail from Ada, Oklahoma. I'm new to aquaponics (though I've had numerous salt and fresh water aquariums in the past) and just completed building my first small system (which I will show off in the Back Yard Systems section) this last Saturday which cycled for a few days before I added some chives and parsley the other day and then four 2-3" sunfish from a local pond. I've got several other seedlings that I will be adding over the coming days as well. If all goes good with this "experiment", I will soon be planning a much larger greenhouse system so I can grow my own food year-round (and not have to do near as much weeding as in my conventional soil garden).
