What Is Aquaponics?
Aquaponics is the combination of Aquaculture and Hydroponics. Hydroponics requires expensive nutrients to feed the plants as well as periodic flushing of the systems which can lead to waste disposal issues. Re-circulating aquaculture needs to have excess nutrients removed from the system which can ordinarily means that a percentage of the water is removed on a daily basis. That nutrient rich water then needs to be disposed of and replaced with clean fresh water. Aquaponics allows you to produce fish and plants in the one system with a large reduction in water use.
Choosing the right fish tank is essential for a healthy and productive small aquaponics system. Discover how to select the ideal tank size, material, and shape, match it with suitable fish, and choose the right equipment for proper water circulation, filtration, and temperature control.
