Hi all,
I'd like to introduce myself. I joined these forums just a minute ago and am still trying to find my way around. I am female, 25, currently posting from Ottawa, Canada.
I have absolutely no background in fish, pet or plant care. Out of curiosity, I started a mini aquaponics system in my bedroom about 2 month ago and I have yet to perfect it. It has bee a long process, so I am here on the DIY Aquaponics forum to seek help and share my experiences with fellow users.
In the future, when I have a full grasp of the aquaponics systems, I hope to build a large scale for regular fish and vegetable consumption in a self sustaining home.
I currently have a:
20 gallon tank
9 Tropical Platy fish (2 adults, 2 teenagers, 5 fry)
2ft x 6" planter
3 Herb plants (Thai basil, Italian basil, chives)
I'm excited to join this community and learn from all of you
Christine
