G’Day Folks. Decided I wasn’t happy with the small static pack biofilter that’s in the aquaponics system so have upgraded to a Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor.
Am fairly happy with the build but might add a drain valve to it yet if I have issues cleaning it out in 6-8 months time.
Hope you enjoy this quick update & your gardens are booming.
Cheers all. 🐟 🌱🍅

Got half of what i need greenhouse lying in the weeds,
tore down a hog barn.
1 inch plastic 160# pressure water pipe 100s of feet.
the auger to distribute food 3 Inch plastic 400 ft
Do you use bio carbon in you filtration?
Have you ever? Do you know how to make it or use it?
Do you have a book ? If not you should write one.
what type of plastic does the media need to be? could you upcycle some chopped up plastic bottles or something?
Hello may i know the air pump spec on this build? Thank you!
Hello Rob how much fall do you have on the pipe running between the radial flow filter and bio filter ? please
just put a tap in your air line and use it to bead off the excess air
Does that mean that i could have a lower temperature in the fish tank and then heat the water in the biofilm reactor so the bacteria kicks in?
Hello Bob…
I have some questions… could you please answer that…
Is there any culture of bacteria in the bio filter(media)? If have then what's the bacteria name…?
Can i make this bio media by myself using plastic straw? Or I need special kind of material to make it?
Apologize If i missed it. Great Video! What did you put on the end of the air tube? Just a single Air Stone, or the Junction bar so you can do many air stones?
how do you size the bioreactor to water water volume? is there a ratio or is it based of flow rates?
Love your videos. All very helpful here in Northern California!! Could you please advise the name of the little things that look like pasta? I know you mentioned it but can not seem to find it
why did you stop using venturis?
Great video
Hi Rob, I have setup the IBC chop and flip, I have followed the bell siphon as per video with the exception of using a 50mm pipe for the bell, the issue that I'm experiencing is that the siphon does not stop after the grow bed drains. Could this be linked to the size of the bell?
Good build Rob and another great video mate.
Hey Pal thanks for sharing this brilliant video, we are thinking of setting up a moving bed soon for our koi fry pond soon!
