Mike that was really interesting! I just scratched the surface with the aquaponics links from one of those sites. I can't think of anything more cool than a set up like that!! If I can spark my husbands interest in it, we already have what could be the fish tank on our back deck. A few years ago he built what I lovingly refer to as his "red-neck" hot tub. A small stock tank with an old swimming pool pump hooked up to the jets he installed with the deck around it. NO he never uses it... LOL
OK.. new 'backyard deck thoughts' to sit and ponder over the winter!!
