I'm not the most knowledgeable, but I'm currently growing a ton of vegetables in a bell siphon system, eggplant, lettuce, mint, peppers, herbs, and tea with a larger version of this system. They're growing like weeds. It was mostly premade, but the setup requirements did not seem very difficult.
Specs for the pictured one according to the website are:
2'x8' Kit: 2'x8' grow bed approximately 120 gallons, 110 gallon pond, 700 gph water pump, large siphon kit, large piping set, 2'x8' table, 18 bags of pre-washed cinders or 8 bags of hydrocorn.
I bought it premade from the same company as the pictured one, but it's based in Hawaii. It may not be as helpful for you. I basically just needed to buy the cinder blocks to prop it up and sealant for the pvc pipes. Popular choice is always tilapia for hardiness and easy breeding, but a lot of people keep koi or large tropicals, mostly large cichlids and plecos, if they don't intend on eating them. I personally have koi in mine.
You're probably sick of video's or maybe you've watched this one, but they got over the same system I just mentioned in this video at 12:30.

Nice set up anon.

>>2321792
Thanks anon! I'm looking for something to feed two people, including myself, so yours looks to be a good size for that.

What do you do with your excess product? I was thinking about giving it out to neighbors or preserving it somehow, if that's possible.

No real excess, so you might have to look that up. I give heavily to my grandmother though. Lettuce and watercress is enough for salads every so often, and everything else is plucked when it's convenient. I just have to get rid of some dead leaves every so often. I don't eat the fish as mentioned. The system was kind of an excuse to keep larger ones.
