Category Aquaponics

“Aquaponics” combines aquaculture (raising fish) with hydroponics (soil-less plant cultivation) in a symbiotic environment. This section introduces you to the principles of aquaponics, detailing how to create and maintain a system where fish waste provides nutrients for plants, and plants help to filter and clean the water for the fish. Learn about the types of fish and plants best suited for aquaponics, system design considerations, and the benefits of this sustainable, efficient method for producing both fresh produce and protein.
