Minor Catastrophe, But Successful Recovery

I discovered the exit of my solids drainpipe in the main fish tank had come apart when checking the aquaponics system today. I had to PVC glue and reassemble to get everything back in order. Luckily I had enough rain in my 55 gallon barrel to refill the system.

Luckily this hadn't persisted for a while and the fish are looking great. This is another benefit to this design. If there is a major problem like this It's not a complete catastrophic failure and is fairly simple to recover from.

I also am having issues with my automated feeder and had to replace it with a different type.
