    Glossary? Dictionary

    I'm probably just overlooking something,
    but I'd love to see a glossary posted,
    preferably right at the portal.
    Every undertaking has it's arcane jargon,
    and aquaponics seems to have it's share.
    Acronymns, Abbreviation, and technical terms
    are obvious to those in the know,
    but not to we who are about to begin:

    "I'm using a PVC IBC for my primary DIY FT
    but I don't know if I need to purge the nitrosomonas
    from my hydroton before anerobic cycling.
    I used to use DWC but I've switched to riverbed GBs
    with intermittent polynutrient ebb and flow
    with F3 Plecostomus/ flavescens backcrosses.
    I'm considering HP tetrahydrocannabinol infusion
    for sativa cerebral enhancement."

    Yikes!
    Expecting the world to treat you fairly because you're a nice person
    is like expecting a bull not to charge you because you're a vegetarian.

    Think I saw something like that over in the How To dept.
    At first I left this blank...but now I believe: "It's better to keep your mouth closed, and have the world think your a fool, than open it and confirm it."

    This is the PDF search engine: http://diyaquaponics.com/pdf.php
    Not quite what you were looking for, but there's some good info here.
