we used two different styles of containers and ventilation equip, on one box its a window fan that was on clearance for 4$ @ lowes.. the other has a 105cfm axial fan mounted to it. one is using blue mountain organics, the other is using fish poop. both are using 1040watt equivalent..

the two boxes side by side

from your pics, it looks like you are using a lot of red light. why is that? are you not still vegging, or are you going straight into flowering?

the green is algea growth from the veg box (using all organic under 250MH) the journal is the link below. im going to put in like another 20 fish, some color variety.. but its a matter of getting enough fish to make enough poop, without haveig too many nitrates. it's roughly 8 gal of water, the only nutes the fish project has had thus far was 1/8tsp superthrive, 1oz BMOBloom. the idea is fish makin nutes, but havent hit the magi balance just yet but soon tho.. plan to build a large hid auquaponics setup in the garage to grow vegies and fruit aswell, usin a lare 300gal drum to grow talapia to eat, that feed the plants.
