Now that you have practiced with the FAQ Guide, you will be problem solving with your team.

For your team challenge, you will work through three different scenarios that may occur within your system. You will work to identify the issue, and then you will predict what effects the issue may have on your overall system. You will finally propose a solution using the FAQ guide as a resource.

Use this Document to work with your team to complete this task. You will be awarded points based on your ability to identify the issue and working to predict a possible issue that may arise from the issue of your aquaponics tank. Good luck!
