I did it with my kid during the Covid lockdown and my fish lived happily for 2.5 years (RIP & thanks for the basil).

Cool, thx for posting.

I picked it up, along with a stone set (mounted stone disc, tubing, check valve, flow control valve, connectors) for a few $$ on the same site.

Both got me digital credit for A-day delivery.


(moderators... I hope this is OK to post).

Quote from jrflyaa :
Great question, personally when combining water and electricity im prone to stay away from such items
Well, shouldn't be any electricity reaching pump, especially if u install a 1-way check valve.

But yeah, who knows. Maybe because it's a name brand sold in USA, it has to be stated? Or more likely, they get flooded with "Is this UL Listed" questions.

Quote from sdfoo :
Is one pump 10 gallon good enough for a 5 gallon bucket? Do you run it 24 hours a day or a reduced cycle?
From my experiences, yes, 1 10 gallon pump is good for a 5 gallon bucket. I run it 24 hours a day. I believe that is what DWC calls for.
Quote from sdfoo :
Do you have any recommendations for air stones? I tried the rectangular bars from Walmart and the break after a few weeks. the small cylinders are more durable, but don't have the surface area.
I have some air stones that I bought years ago that are still working great. Unfortunately, I do not recall where I purchased them from. I did buy a few 14" air stones from Walmart last week for some 27 gallon tubs that I have setup. So far they are working fine...I hope they last more than a few weeks.

It's a perfectly reasonable quiet pump if you are hesitant

Quote from queenofasia :
Has anyone found a good DIY design for a mini aquarium aquaponics set up?
aquaponics like you're really trying to grow food in a closed loop with fish? probably not, it's not easy, lots of variables.
if you want an ez-starter hydroponic proof of concept thing, look up a "DWC bucket".

also i do have a mini-pond in a 30 gallon home depot tub in my back yard w fish and plants but it's not for food, it's just relaxing and fun to tinker with..
