    First Try at Hybrid Aquaponics

    Hello, I'm currently setting up my first hybrid aquaponics system. I'm calling it a hybrid system because the plants will be grown in soil and the water will not be returned to the tank. It's also my first real greenhouse that I'm doing this in. So here are some pics, let me know what you think:

    These are a few days old, the tank is now sitting upright and the greenhouse has been fully assembled. I'll post some more pics of the inside tomorrow. The tank is a 135 gal. upright round tank that measures 28"x28" and I'm planning on stocking it with bluegill/brim in the spring.

    I am so envious. While we finally broke above zero today, we still have snow on the ground. Keep you the great work and welcome to the community.

    nice setup. Is the house pre-fab? or did you build from scratch? I am in search of new plastic panels for my 'Ponics garden.

    Looks good, what is the covering material of the green house is it a type of Perspex or a light cloth?
