    I like the idea of putting the heater in the filter barrel. That way I won't have to worry about temperature spikes from the water level raising and lowering.

    man you aren't kidding, I've dug in sand before I hate it too!I'm looking forward to your post about the heater. I think I'm going to heat the water in the sump tank during the cold months and let it pump warmish water to the fish instead of putting the heater in with the fish. Thoughts?

    Well thanks for the kind words every one. Whilst I have yalls attention, where do you guys stand on the insect screen on the sides of the greenhouse? I was going to have mine permanently attached to the 4 foot walls under the roll up sides. But, as I thought about it, how would I get pollinators...

    greenhouse *UPDATED* New aquaponic greenhouse build. *PIC HEAVY*

    6 mil sheeting will be on the roof, I thought about replacing it with the panels later. I am using 1/2"-3/4" river rock for media in the grow beds. This is the first structure I've ever built so I'm kinda learning about the bracing as I go.
