Thank you for your reply. As I said we have tried small rocks and coco coir but we can try foam sponge. Did you make them yourself out of a larger piece?

NxT Horizon LLC is an Urban Agriculture Planning and Consulting firm in Phoenix Arizona. Our mission is to make urban Agriculture more predictable, productive, sustainable and easier through aquaponics enhanced integrated farming techniques. During the recent pandemic recession we were able to demonstrate how modular, easily scalable, low cost, DIY, DWC


aquaponics systems adapted from splash pools, could produce enough fruit, vegetables and fish in urban back yards to combat family food insecurity and potentially allow for the re-invigoration of the successful victory garden business model that fed 40% of the United States in 1945. This will particularly beneficial in communities where access to healthy food is low and the need for new economic opportunities is high.
