All the vegetables are growing really well!

I had modified the double barrel fish protector filter for my water pump to point upwards instead so that there won’t have any possible chance of over flowing anywhere since the amount of water are limited to the water level above the barrels.

My molly fishes had actually given birth to many small babies!! ^_^
I fed them 2 times daily with algae wafer and they seems to be flourishing well :)

    Hi. Interesting setup you have there. :)
    I’m also looking for similar setup at home for sake of hobby and of course the food. One thing that I have been thinking about is the power consumption if I were to use PL light or even MH. Care to share some thoughts on this?

    The power consumption is a key problem that I haven’t really thought too much about, the current solution is to use less by employing a timer (those found in sim lim tower) that switches the power off & on automatically base on your setting.

    Mine is set to start and stop every half hour….so total 12 hours of lights instead of 24 hours.

    I like to expand my project to a 6 buckets instead of only 2 so I might employ those longer lights instead of multiple 2 feet lights…but that will have to see the weight limit of the floor…hopefully it will work…hehe
