Electronica Aquaponica: I'm Back
http://electronicaaquaponica.blogspot.com/2013/03/im-back.html
Sunday, 3 March 2013. I'm sorry for not updating for so long. The company I worked with just gone bust so I was busy closing my work as well as worrying what I'm going to do next. For now, I'm all free with nothing to do all day so I'll start updating my progress on here again. 6 weeks isn't it? Yup just over 6 weeks.a very long time in aquaponics. Take a look at what my growbed has turned into. On the other side of the growbed, the Selom is marking its territory. Best of all, it is flowering.a lot!

Sunday, 20 January 2013. New Plants on the Bed. And finally, my wife bought a bunch of Selom. Water Dropwort/ Water Parsley) from the wet market. It was pretty hard to get it so I'm very happy. After sorting I managed to get a few cutting which already have some roots. I planted it around the mint bush. Hopefully it will grow well and provide us with endless supply of fresh leafy goodness. Monday, 14 January 2013. Look at the bulging eye, bruised/ reddish around it. Spirulina based fish food! Spirulina i...

The story of my semi-automatic fish and vegetables production machine in my backyard. Wednesday, 28 March 2012. System Update - 28th Mar 2012. A heavy down pour two days ago had increased the water level tremendously. On Tuesday morning, I found that the bottom part of the outlet pipe had fallen off into the fish tank. Surprisingly, the siphon still works! And the famous aquaponics monster - The Mint. Kang Kong and the Pegaga-like plant will probably do well since they are aquatic plants. This time it's ...

The story of my semi-automatic fish and vegetables production machine in my backyard. Thursday, 24 January 2013. Had been months since my last update. I didn't feel like updating my blog for so long because many of my plants were dying due to the lack of direct sunlight. But then, good news came! The back looks brighter now; I was joyful and I smiled. Here are some pics:. The tree after much of its major branches removed. I'm sorry tree, but you need to slim down. This is the one and only cucumber plant ...

The story of my semi-automatic fish and vegetables production machine in my backyard. Wednesday, 20 June 2012. Disaster - System switched OFF for 7 hours! On Sunday, my parents came over to stay. My mom, as usual, goes around the house looking for something to clean, arrange, or replace. Monday night, she noticed a power socket switched to ON in the living room. Without caring where the inserted plugs lead to, she flipped the switch! Floating guppy carcasses sucked by the drainage pipe. So it has been 2 ...

Electronica Aquaponica: September 2012
http://electronicaaquaponica.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, 30 September 2012. Luckily I have some 2x4 wood leftovers from the table so I attached it to the side of the table to get the 'extrusion' needed for the post to clear the grow bed's top. I let the shade to have and extra overhang to the front and the back to provide extra protection during the sun is low on the horizon. I'm quite satisfied with the outcome. Here is the picture if you stand in front of it. I also found a wild tekukur ( Spotted Dove. So what's up next? Looks like the green algae ha...

Electronica Aquaponica: November 2012
http://electronicaaquaponica.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Monday, 26 November 2012. Over two month now, I think I should document what I have done right and what is done wrong.I think. Stones in the fish tank. Pump with variable pressure. With no experience, you might need to experiment on water in and water out from the grow bed to get the automatic syphon working, this kind is invaluable. Different kind of fish. I should have wait for the grow bed to mature because of (1) above. Then only it is suitable to start using pre filter. Using pebbles in grow bed.

The story of my semi-automatic fish and vegetables production machine in my backyard. Friday, 18 May 2012. Heavy Rain and Strong Wind. Two days ago, after 4 days without rain, an abnormally windy storm hit my area 4 am in the morning. I couldn't do anything to protect my plants since my soul had been completely sucked by Diablo III that day. In the morning, I saw this:. Looks like the screen protector was pushed down by the heavy rain. No casualties it seems. The screen wasn't damaged. As for the plants:.

The story of my semi-automatic fish and vegetables production machine in my backyard. Tuesday, 14 May 2013. Old News, Bad News, and Good News. Another update after a long period of dormancy! Not that I totally neglected aquaponics, I just don't have anything fun or nice to show off. Unlike other people's system, mine isn't that successful. No lush jungle growth or monster fish. I've yet to enjoy my first fully aquaponics meal like the one shown in Murray Hallam's video. They were hot as well. The plants ...
