Anyone out there running aquaponics? Just started cycling my tank... Wondering what other kinds of life I can support in the fish tank, going to start it up with some tilapia~

Good job figuring that out Phillip. Probably not many people will believe me on this, but I just spray AND water in dish soap (Dawn) and cold-pressed neem oil, not hydrophobic extract neem oil and i have very little bug problems now. Cold pressed neem oil has systemic properties. I get it from Ahimsa Organics which has 4500ppm azadactarin (spelling?), but you can get some locally from Crop Production Services that has 3000ppm azadactarin or Ohana Greenhouse Supply has Dyna-Gro neem oil which has 1500ppm azadactarin. You have to water it into the soil for it to have the most systemic effect. It's been working for me anyway. Oh, and I always mix in BT and potassium silicate too.

There are too many factors at play that we don't know about (soil, temps, humidity, etc etc).

Looks like it gets real hot during the day where you are and they got fried. I could very well be mistaken though.

Does it smell? Is there any effect on ur plants as far as smell, taste, etc.? What about the effects on smoking that stuff? Wouldn't this stuff stay on the plant tissue even after flushing? I hate having to spray anything on my plants and all my problems usually arise in the last 3 weeks. Does it work on Bot?
