 ah!! the weekend 

my next 2 #blogs will be about #Golfing at Ridgemark Golf Course in Hollister Ca. and how I am going to transform this fish tank into an #Aquaponics setup to grow some #Vegetables next to my other Planting table during the winter.

lot's of things to consider.
I got the lighting and mediums to use, but I think I'm going to struggle with temperature fluctuations since this is an uninsulated tough shed.

some ideas I have are to run a server in the shed to provide heat, but that would be unregulated and tough to control.

I have a small space heater but concerned about the safety of running it fulltime.

always something to research and learn.

happy weekend everyone

 A few thoughts, but first a question, does the tank need to be exposed to light? If not, you might try wrapping it with reflective bubble insulation and put an aquarium heater under it.  
 well... first, the answer is No. 
I have some lucky goldfish out in the pond to contribute the minerals and nutrients to the medium.

second. I need heat in the shed (air) to support the above medium growth.

i have side lights for the tank to sustain the fish and maybe a couple of water plants.

still researching
