We had a wonderful start to our aquaponics systems this year! Fishing was cold and not completely successful for either class, but we did manage to reel some in. Luckily, a few volunteers went fishing over a weekend and brought in a bunch for Mrs. Bernard's tank.
We discovered that chlorinated water, such as the water from our faucet, was killing the bacteria that we needed. So, we fill up a separate tank with water and let the chlorine evaporate, then we fill the fish tanks with that water.
Plants in Mrs. Bernard's grow beds are growing better than Cooper's, so we are thinking we need more fish...probably from Petsmart this time.
