I have been interested in the aquaculture side of the hobby for some time myself. I went as far as purchasing a 275 gallon tote I planned to make something out of but never have. It's still sitting outside calling to me.
Read a lot about cyclonic filtration and collection of the waste to feed the planting beds an such.
Always wanted to build one of those cyclone filters.

Your young and plenty to look forward too and I have no doubt that some day you will accomplish your goals. That sounds like a great opportunity for future growth as the worlds population increases the demand will definitely increase.

Aquaponics is my forté. I'm going to a professor to discuss career and study options soon.

I won't! :D

Ph
Tap 6.6 or 6.8
Tank 7.2
That's new, PH rising. Usually PH goes down after going into tanks. Mine comes in 9.0 and settles at 7.5, on that note I need an ageing barrel

he probably has coral or shills or bones some sort of buffer in there. Or maybe the fancy denitrator bacteria raise the ph instead of lowering it.
