Mike Its EPDM lined 3000gal 16x12 sloped to 6ft at the 4in bottom drain which is gravity connected to a 600gal 5x16 sloped to 2.5ft deep settlement/veggie filter 3 55gal biofilters.Its powered with a 1/4hp powerplus pump http://www.powerpluspumps.com/ A waterfalls and aiming some of the pump outputs straight up are my Aerators although Im going to try the diy venturi that was posted a couple days ago. I went with bluegills because I love them and most lake fish are contaminated with mercury or lord knows what. I want to eat these fish so its good they are shy and I dont get personal with them like I did the pheasants I couldnt kill. There is a big move for intensive urban agriculture around the world today and intensive aquaculture is really coming along with alot of info like http://srac.tamu.edu/ and http://msucares.com/aquaculture/index.html and alot of others. But I found most of the practical and realistic info about the pond setup right here as most aquaculture setups and supplies are too big for my backyard and wants. I need about 100 pounds of fresh fish a year to satisfy my household needs. I hope after its been going a few years I will be able to get it. Pictures in a few days. |
