The Balcony Complete single grow bed kit is the kit to get you started into Aquaponics.

This kit will grow a steady supply of tomatoes, lettuce, silver beet, or strawberries, in fact any green leafy vegetable can be grown.
See our website for the possibilities.
A rewarding, wonderful hobby.
Expandable.....
This kit is able to run additional grow beds. These can be added later if desired.
This volume of fish tank together with the appropriate number of fish, is capable of running an additional 2 grow beds.
That would be a total to 3 grow beds.
This would provide additional fresh vegetable production as well as the capacity to carry more fish, for those whose primary interest is Home Aquaculture.
This Balcony kit is in the process of having an additional grow bed added.
The additional Grow Bed is standing on 6 concrete blocks,
3 at each end together with 2 x 1400mm long 50 x 75 hardwood planks to support the bed.
It is a good idea to fill the concrete blocks with dry gravel to further stabilise the structure.
Make sure the concrete blocks are placed on a level firm surface.
