Benefits of Aquaponics

• Water Conservation华体会体育入口– Aquaponic systems recirculate water continuously and require far less water per plant than soil-based agriculture.Water does not need to be fully flushed or even partially from the system, as is the case with hydroponics.Only small amounts of water (usually less than a gallon every few days) are discharged from the solids filter.This solids discharge can be further broken down in a separate aerobic mineralization tank.Read more about aerobic mineralizationhere.
• Continuous Food Production for your family, neighbors, school, or business.The system is designed to produce fish and plants continuously year-round under assuming the proper environmental conditions for plant production.To learn more about how to properly cycle and operate an aquaponic system, check out ourhth官网 , andclasses.
• A Natural Eco-System– Aquaponics is inherently an organic system relying on natural bacterial processes to convert ammonia from fish waste to nitrates, which beneficial for the plants.  No harmful pesticides, fertilizers, or other chemicals that are common in traditional agriculture and in some hydroponic system can be used.If it's not safe for naturally occurring bacteria or fish, then it's not safe for you.
• Tremendous Growth and Yields– In a healthy aquaponic system, plants grow very robustly and fast as a result of consistent nutrient absorption, optimal water quality, temperature, light, and pH, among other factors.Your plants, fish, and environment require attention to function properly.Not all systems will perform alike due to differences in environmental conditions, management techniques, and water quality.
• Fish Friendly– Fish are stocked at low to moderate densities to provide them plenty of space and good water quality (Usually 1 adult fish to every 5 to 7 gallons of water).There is no need to overstock fish.Overstocked fish tanks create poor water quality, excessive solid waste, and aggressive behaviors.Fish eat and perform their best when they are not stressed and overcrowded.

How the System Works

Nutrient-rich water flows from the 200-gallon fish tank to the Spiral Flow Filter.The filter collects the heaviest solids fish waste at the bottom of the cone for easy discharge into a 5-gallon bucket.The clarified water flows through to the scrub filter for additional solids capture and biological filtration before dropping into the sump below.A submersible pump at the bottom of the sump pumps water back to the fish tank and all grow beds simultaneously.The fish tank and each grow bed has its own independent flow control.A central AC/DC air pump provides aeration and oxygen delivery to the fish and plant system even during a power outage.

Key Features

• Waist High Gardening –Plants, fish tanks, and filters are at a comfortable working height.No bending, weeding or tilling!
• Media and Deep Water Culture Growing– The AquaBundance series allows you to combine soil-less media and deep water culture growing beds in the same system allowing for diverse crop production, optimal planting densities, and the ability to experiment with different growing methods.The Media Beds are ideal for growing fruiting plants (such as tomatoes and peppers), fruit trees, most greens as well as plants that prefer a drier environment (such as thyme and rosemary).Deep water culture beds are excellent for leafy greens, lettuce, and herbs.
• No Cutting, Priming or Gluing –Most plumbing components are pre-manufactured in our shop.Plumbing connections are made with Quik-lock fittings or Fernco adapters when assembling the system.The plumbing literally snaps together
• Heavy Duty Powder Coated Frame– Provides a professional finish and rust protection.Frames come in black by default, but a wide variety of custom powder coating colors are available for a small setup fee.
• Modular Designand Simple Assembly– The modular frame allows you to create a system to best fit your space.The frame can also be configured in an L-Shape, or you can add on aGrowasis Elevated Modular Raft System.Frames arrive ready to assemble with the supplied hex key.
• Components fit through standard door widths– The largest item in the system is the fish tank.Whether you stay with the standard 200-gallon tank or upgrade to the 300-gallon tank, each tank is only 33″ high and can roll on its side through most standard door widths.
• The Lighting and Trellis Rackmatches the base frame and can hang artificial lights and allows for a place to tie off vining crops such as Tomatoes.
• Custom Paneling OptionsAvailable – Wood finish or dry erase board panels (great for schools or keeping notes on) can be added to the frame to provide a beautiful finish to the outside of your grow beds.Pleasecontact usif you would like a custom paneling quote.
• Solids and Biological Filtration– The cone-shaped spiral flow filter captures solids a the bottom of the cone with a swivel mount valve for easy evacuation into a 5-gallon bucket.A secondary scrub filter before the sump provides another layer of solids and biological filtration.
• Battery Backup Air Pump– All Aquabundance systems come standard with a variable speed AC/DC air pump designed to run for up to 8 hours in the event of a power outage.This gives you the peace of mind that your fish are still receiving the dissolved oxygen they need at all times.
• Optional Fish Tank Window Kit– see recommended products at the bottom of the page.The window kit does not come pre-installed due to the potential for cracking during shipping.
• Priority Support– We want you to be successful.Our home and farm system customers are our top priority, and we will help answer your questions as fast and as reliably as we can.

What's Not Included with your system

We do not supply fish fingerlings.We recommend that you contact a local fish hatchery or supplier.Each state has different regulations regarding permissible species, so it is often best to visit your state's department of wildlife or agriculture to get a listing of suppliers in your area.Once your system is fully cycled, and at the proper water temperature, you can safely introduce them.For more information on cycling and fish, please visit ourhthvip

Seeds or starter plants should be purchased locally or from a reputable supplier such as Johnny's seeds.If you purchase starter plants in soil, please gently rinse all of the soil off of the roots with lukewarm water before transplanting into the system.
