What Is Aquaponics?

Aquaponics is the highly acclaimed process of growing fish and plants in a single integrated system. The process involves pumping water from a fish tank into a grow bed of vegetables, flowers or other plants. Nutrients from the fish waste will therefore naturally feed the plant roots. In addition, as the plants utilise the highly nutritious fish waste, their roots naturally filter the remaining water which is then recirculated back into the fish tank.

This process provides plants with great nutrition and fish with clean water. Your plants will also grow up to four times faster with this technique than using more traditional growing methods. Aquaponics is a sustainable, low-maintenance process. It can suit everywhere from backyards, to schools and to larger-scale production like farming.
