Pandemic “Third Wave” hit. Looking forward to share my Next attempt. 🐈🐟🌱Aquaponic Grow🐟🌱🐈 #Germination 🗓️19 Jul 2021 Germination was simple. Just added some seeds in plant cups. Tank setup is as follow: Tank 40 liter Air Pump 2.5w SHANDA SD-900 Mini Aquarium Water Pump Small 2 Air Stone Grow medium mostly consist of small sea shells and rocks washed and packed. Fish: Gold Fish named Ed, Edd, Eddie After the wash of the grow media and Tank water fill I let the system run for a week. This allows the water condition to stabilize. Used spring water. The fish were placed in tank still in bag for water temp reasons. Opened the bang and kept the fish in tank for a week before planting seeds. Micro Bacteria to form in grow medium. Will be adding a Root Conditioner soon. Looking for on thats not harmful to the fish. 🌱New Posts Ever Monday🌱 Follow and like my instagram: https://www.instagram.com/p/CPRd1WeA4WP/?utm_medium=copy_link Thanks for Reading Joe & Pop-Corn🐈

🐈🐟🌱Aquaponic Grow🐟🌱🐈 #1 🗓️08 Aug 2021 Week #1 and the seedlings looking good. Its still a bit cold and cloudy. I'm sure these seedling will grow nice and strong. Ed, Edd & Eddy seems to be 2 male 1 female. If they spawn I will separate them from the eggs. If this happens I will have to invest in 1 more tank. Pop-Corn made a new friend. The cat upstairs are staying over for the weekend. 🌱New Posts Ever Monday🌱 Follow and like my instagram: https://www.instagram.com/p/CPRd1WeA4WP/?utm_medium=copy_link Thanks for Reading Joe & Pop-Corn🐈

🐈🐟🌱Aquaponic Grow🐟🌱🐈 Week #2 🗓️10 Aug 2021 Did a water change. Scooped out water with a 500ml cup. Put the old water in a bucket with lid for the sake of Pop-Corn. Change the config. of the air pump to have air in tank and bucket. The air in bucket is to supply constant oxygen to fish and the air in tank is to remove unwanted gas from water. Had to do this for 48hour and then placed the fish back in tank. Plants seem to grow very nice. We are still in winter. 🌱New Posts Ever Monday🌱 Follow and like my instagram: https://www.instagram.com/p/CPRd1WeA4WP/?utm_medium=copy_link Thanks for Reading Joe & Pop-Corn🐈
