Tank # 5 is online, finally. No fish in it though, hehe .  I did add 10 gal of the water from the bluegil tank. That should help get the grow bed cycling faster. I have 15 ft of grow tube set up and ready to mount tomorrow evening.  It consists of 4in pipe with 3 in holes drilled every 6inches apart. I will put 4in pots into the holes and run the fish water threw the tubes, just deep enough for the water to touch the bottom of the pots. I think we are going to plant strawberries in this run.

You can see the drilling process, and the 5ft section already drilled with the empty pots inserted.
