Hello from Arizona.

[Ejaz]

I have a 600+ gallon tank with fish pumping into a 400 gallon biofilter tank with cattails, rushes, etc growing in lava rock. Working on a design to integrate some veg grow beds into the existing ponds while maintaining the "looks". Not much additional room to work with either as the tanks are in a corner of the yard. We will see what happens.

I'd like to hear more about raising cattails ..... we used to use cattails for a veggie back a few more years than I want to speculate .... the roots are good in stews, and the center of the stalk, when it's green, makes a good snack stick .... tastes like a cross between an onion and a garlic kinda .... pix, pix, pix ..........

Cattails can produce more starch per acre than potatoes. Been looking into them for making fuel.
