    Been to bendigo today to see Mizzie/s system it shows a nother way of doing things he has 2 3000 litre tanks running shift pist to the one set of grow beds [at the moment ] Rod is useing 90 mm pipe from both tanks ,After the tee then steps down to 50 mm to the grow beds [you should see the flow coming up from the bottom ] then from the grow beds to an ibc sump where theres 2 submersables running alternativley to the fish tanks[ one runs odd hours one runs even hours] theres 90 trout and a few reddies [he was not feeding enough we are increasing that slowley to max] All in all a beautiful running system and theres room for expansion
