 The "Veggie-Pond" System is a 110 gallon aquaculture tank plus two 30 gallon grow beds. The materials are LDPE and all plumbing, aerator, pump, tubing is included in the system and comes ready to assemble along with the Educational DVD that can be shown to students, teachers and professionals.

 

We are please to offer four systems one of which is sure to meet your backyard organic needs. Each system is designed for the size of the aquaculture tank (HDPE) to grow bed (HDPE) ratio with the ability of additional growbeds to be added at the time of purchase or later. We also have a unique feature which is our Foamboard Aquaculture Tank Floating Raftbed Cover (see photo) which gives much additional grow area. Our growbeds are designed to be an optimal height of 12" and all of our components that come in contact with the fish are "food safe". We do local installations within 75 miles of Orlando 32829, or we can ship a system via truckline to your location. Shipping of large items can be quoted by phone. We have an instructional DVD included with each system purchase installed or shipped.

Bell Siphon

A bell siphon is placed in each media filled-growbed and a non-mechanical device that automatically trips the water to drainbellsiphonclose out of the growbed every 15-20 minutes. Our systems come with bell syphons custom for the depth of our growbeds, eliminating the need for electric timers to be used. Bell siphons are not necessary if your growbed is going to be used as a floating raft bed. If you have multiple growbeds it is a good idea to have at least one media growbed because the root systems of some plants are quite heavy and need the support of the clay ball media which we recommend for use in our growbeds.
