Thanks for the comment!
I didn't get too much food from this experiment, I just had 1 cherry tomato plant in the system. I did get a lot of cherry tomatoes from the plant.
There wasn't much smell with this system. It might have smelled more if I would have had more fish in the tank. With a lot of fish, it starts to get a bit of a pond smell to the system. Of course, since it's in the greenhouse, it doesn't matter if it smells a bit.
I think a lot of people use these systems to grow greens such as lettuce and kale. That's probably a lot more efficient than growing tomatoes in an aquaponics system. I think you would get a lot more food from the system that way.

Yeah that's a good point. Having it off in it's own area would really prevent any concern for odors. It's so fascinating to me though that you're able to efficiently grow food with a system like that. Lots of cherry tomatoes are better than no cherry tomatoes so good on you for making it happen!
