Simple Backyard Aquaponics System

Aquaponics is an innovative and sustainable farming technique that integrates aquaculture (raising fish) and hydroponics (growing plants in water). In an aquaponic system, fish waste provides nutrients for plants, while the plants filter the water for the fish, creating a closed-loop ecosystem. This method offers numerous benefits, including reduced water usage, elimination of chemical fertilizers, and the ability to grow fresh, organic produce and fish in a controlled environment. Explore our resources to learn how to design, build, and maintain your own thriving aquaponic system.

Tutorial on how to make this please 🙏🏼

[Sahilh_on_crack]

Would you be able to provide some guidance if id wanna try a smaller version of this?

[knaguy]

doesnt that sponge clog up the system? I fear that would lead to an overflow through the first hole. Also is that 3 inch or 4 inch pipe?

[ramonlaroque]

what are you feeding your fish and how often?

[poitierkidgaming]

How often do you clean the system?

do you have to worry about your plants having to much fish poop,
Or a nutrients imbalance?

Do you clean the lava rocks?
If so how?

I want to work on a large scale aquaponics system but most sources say i need to buy big expensive stuff and and even after buying that stuff i still need to clean the tank.

Do you check your water parameters regularly? I'm asking because that seems like a lot of bubbles which sometimes can be an indication of ammonia.

Can gold fish survive in the Las Vegas dessert? I would love to try this system

[jamesleadbetter]

So you invest electricity, time, fish food, and setup, costs all for some lettuce? What am i missing?

You don’t have any evaporation by leaving water exposed??

هل تكتفي بالإسفنج لفلترة المياه، أم هناك فلتر آخر؟
