Mine an astoroid for gold then finance the rest of the mission. Where would you keep fish in space?

Bump Old thread.

Anybody gone solar? Pumps have low watt & high head height now, cheap too.

Keep the updates flowing, I'm enjoy a bit of fishroom Voyeurism.
Would you be interested in putting a few solar panels on the roof? I'm trialing a 100w dc system, yet to get battery's but I can pump 1000l/hr 2m high then gravity drain back to sump for about 6hours per day atm. With a battery hooked up I can do this 24/7. I think solar sheds are the way to go especially for fish rooms.
Kurt, I'm living in Erskine now so if you need a hand with anything give me a hoot.

Ps I could loan you a panel to trial if you like.

Hi Kurt,
Looking good. I will be converting my shed next year & looking for info/experiences regarding cheapest heating/cooling.

Few questions: any insulation behind the plaster walls/roof?
From my research 100mm HD foam works the best, not sure where to buy it, Clark rubber maby.

Are you going reverse cycle? If so, which brand/model. Research says 1.5hp Eco Riannai for 10x6m room.
Heating the room or just sumps/tanks?
