AquaParts SS3 Aquaponics Plumbing Kit

How the AquaParts SS3 Aquaponics Plumbing Kit works:

With the addition of a sump tank your fish tank will stay at a constant height AND you can start with a 1 to 1 ratio of your fish tank volume to total grow bed volume …going all the way to 1 to 3!

This kit has all the plumbing parts you need to build a thriving aquaponic system out of any set of  grow beds and sump and fish tanks.  That could be any of the following:

• Three EasyReach Grow Beds, One 130 Gallon Sump tank, and a 200 Gallon Fish Tank
• Three IBC totes, with one cut in half for the grow beds. one cut in half for the third grow bed and the sump tank and the third serving as the fish tank.
• Any other food-safe, watertight containers your imagination can come up with!

Product Details:

• SS3 = Siphon based drainage with a Sump Tank, 3-Beds

Recommended Accessories:

1. Getting Started Combo Pack – gives you a test kit, pH Up and Down solutions for managing your pH, a cycling kit with the instructions and materials you need to establish your nitrifying bacteria colony, and the Aquaponics Explained DVD for even more information about aquaponics!  All at 20% less than if you had bought these items individually.
2. Aeration – Your fish need more oxygen than this system design can give them, plus it is always good to have backup air in case your pump fails.

What this kit does not include

• 1″ and 2″ PVC pipe – this can be easily and inexpensively sourced locally, and purchasing your own gives you more flexibility with the placement of your components. (As a guide, we used two 10’ lengths of 2” PVC as well as five 10’ lengths of 1” PVC in creating our test system using IBC totes.)
• Pump – the best pump size for your unique system depends in part on the placement of your components. Please see our Pumps selection guide to purchase.
• Grow Beds, Fish Tank and Sump Tank
• Grow Media
