great looking system. im into permaculture in a big way. did you use concrete to build. if so do you think earth ( cob) could be used or would the water break down the cob quickly. congrats

Beutiful video. I have some questions. Were you taking care of the PH of the water and the iron for the plants? are rabbits contributing with their waste to the fishes water? I will start with something small and see how it goes..
I would seriously be interested in seeing a diary/vlog of your project. Especially keen on seeing a layout/design pamplet to copy/ start from. Hearing your ideas on how you would improve your system would definitely be helpful. Changing the world Rule #1. If you want people to copy your example – make it idiot proof 🙂
Awesome work BTW – very inspirational!!
Oh and please note: those rabbits need more room than was shown here!!
Great video, but the music shifts rapidly between left an right which is a bit nauseating. Sure I can turn off the sound but I didn’t know if you were going to say something. Again, great system.
Your collections are excellent. If you are interested to see more exotic Ornamental fishes watch our videos.

THANKS FOR POSTING
this is beautiful. i will use some of your ideas for a similar project in my backyard…
and maybe post a video response!
Nice system, beautiful work !
But what you have is a great irrigation system, not a hydroponics growing unit, that is entirely based on water, no soil is used. There seems to be a lot of confusion about this.

Nice system and looks well constructed and will last. With all the animals do you have a problem with over nitrification of the water supply. Or can that be balanced with more consumers of the nitrogen?
THAT IS A VERY VERY NICE PLACE YOU MUST BE A HAPPY PERSON I KNOW I WOULD BE TO HAVE THAT KINDA PLACE DONT GET ME WRONG IV GOT A GREAT HOUSE BUT YOURS IS AMAZING

I am wondering what you lined your cement with? … or if you did not line it, how you are doing with the acid/alkaline issue? Aloha, from Siargao
