A small prototype of the LED lighting rig.

The Arduino learning continued yesterday. This tech will be the basis for automating as much of the aquaponics monitoring as possible. Not to be a replacement for manual testing, more as a backup and ‘belt and braces’ approach to reduce the worry of what’s happening in the systems.

Also, if I can get the tech to work for low cost it can be viable for the community systems.

LED chips, heatsinks, arduino have all arrived. Time to get the build together for a low initial cost, low operating cost, controlled lighting system for aquaponics. Plans and instructions to follow soon.

Backyard Aquaponics Guide 24/12/2021

If you have an interest in aquaponics I would highly recommend this product By Rob Gray who is a bit of a guru in the aquaponics community.

The guide gives so much information to help any budding aquaponicists start their own systems.

Backyard Aquaponics Guide The guide contains years of Aquaponics information I've published online including some new material, especially for this offering. The guide wraps it all up into a neat little AI-driven tool that you can use to call up the aquaponics information you require on the spot when and where you need it.

You’ll find that things are a little slow here currently. We are looking to love to a new home in the new year and that’s where the aquaponics project will start to take shape.

I’m building led lighting and controllers in the meantime and will post these once I’ve got the video finished.
