SketchUp Archive Stock tank Aquaponics


Todays SketchUp Archive is a compact, efficient and well functioning system. It uses two 75 gallon rectangular stock tanks for the grow beds and one 150 gallon stock tank for the fish tank.
The structure that supports both grow beds is covered in plywood to block out light and prevent algae growth. It also has polystyrene insulating foam layer on the inside to better insulate the fish tank area. The wood can be painted or sealed, inside and out, to protect it from the elements and help prevent the growth of mold. There are two access doors in the middle of the unit that lift off to provide access to the fish. Its a pretty simple and straight forward system.

Let me know what you guys think and if you have any design inputs in the comments. I spend a lot of time making these and every model is to scale and every measurement is exact. You can literally open the file, use the measuring tool and get every exact measurement you need to build this unit. I will put the link to download the SketchUp file at the bottom of the post. If you choose to download the file or if you just like the blog and would like to see more stuff like this, please leave a comment or share the blog on one of the social media site links below. It really helps me out and the more the blog grows, the more cool stuff Ill be able to share with you. (Build it at your own risk of course, Im not your daddy nor am I responsible for you. These are just fancy drawings and I cant guarantee they will work, they are here to try to help you out in your aquaponic endeavors)
Hope you enjoy!
