Aquaponics

Aquaponics is a revolutionary method where aquaculture (fish) and agriculture (vegetables, fruit) are grown in a symbiotic environment.

Aquaponic systems can be used to replicate controlled wetland conditions that are useful for reclaiming potable water from typical household sewage, in addition to generating a continual supply of food with minimal fertilizer use.

Aquaponics takes advantage of the synergies between self-organizing biological systems, emphasizing the one element/many functions principle of permaculture as a natural solution for water treatment.

Tilapia - The Fish Most Often used in Aquaponics

Tilapia are the most popular fish chosen for home and commercial aquaponics projects that are intended to raise edible fish.

Most green leafy vegetables grow well in the hydroponic filter. Although sometimes selected minerals or nutrients such as iron are added, the main source of nutrients for the plants is the fish waste.
