That sounds awesome. I am in the design phase of a new home, which I hope to build next summer. But aquaponics is one of the big must have items for us. When I was younger I used to design and build ponds, in landscapes, that used a lot of the same principles. The big difference being, we used (ornamental) plants to keep the pond water clean, but never harvested them for food. I first learned about aquaponics from a coworker who built a great system a few years ago. I am really looking forward to building my own system. The big downside is, I am sure my wife will name all the fish and any attempt to harvest them for dinner will be met with revolt.
