    Finally got my system moved

    I've not been on the forum for quite some time. I've been building and moving my little system to a new bigger location in the back yard. I think my wife believes I'm crazy or at lest on the brink of losing my mind. I cleared out a corner of the yard poured a concrete slab and erected a shade so I could move everything to one fairly dry and permanent spot. So far everything has worked the way I planned. I still have a little more work to do like add some more grow beds and make the place look a little more presentable. I have attached some pics to give you an idea of what I did. Also I moved the gold fish to their own pond so I didn't have to mix them with the Tilapia but that is a whole other thread.

    nice set up.
    it takes time to set up, run it, and re-setup. call it a growth experience.

    Re: Finally got my system moved

    Thanks for the advise...I still want to add some more grow beds. I spent most of the weekend tilling my dirt beds and getting ready to plant. here in south Texas we will be planting next week if the weather holds.
    I tried the old "at least you know where I am at" logic but she said it would be cheaper for me to go to the bar...

    They always find a way to keep saying they are right, but it sounds like you've already figure out the secret to happy relationship is a simple nod and, "yes dear"
