A long time ago, in a galaxy far away, aquaponics was the only way to produce plants and fish together using one system. A simple aquaponics system known as this special method! He makes it sound so simple, even a 3rd grader you can do this. In this guide we will show you how to build a simple home aquaponics system that, besides being fun and rewarding as well.
So, before we start building let us know the 2 basic parts of an aquaponics system which are fish and plants. Step 1: Choose the type of fish you want to cultivate The fish you select will provide vital nutrients that plants need to grow large and healthy. Goldfish, tilapia or guppies are the most well-known types. After that, you will select the plants to cultivate. These plants are good for the fish, they clean up the water which makes it a healthy environment.
Now that you know which fish and plants to pick, let us take a look at what supplies are required inorder for your aquaponics setup: Aquarium Tank some Gravel Water pump Tubing Net pots Clay Pebbles Fish Food Most of these items you can find in your home or at a store.
Here is my step-by-step guide to setting up an aquarium at home: Step 1 The first thing you need to do is fill the fish tank with pure water and layer the bottom of it with some gravel. The gravel is useful because it has bacteria grow and good for the system.
Step 3: Time to mount the water pump. If this particle is not directed anywhere in the reservoir at all, then the pump will be needed to mix and push water around there - fish must eat oxygen. Attach your tubing to the pump, then place its other end in a part of the tank so that it drips water back into it. This water should cycle all the way through and collect in various lengths of tubing before being able to drip back into the tank.
Provide enough light for them to grow well in your aquaponics system. Nearly all plants prefer at least 6-8 hours of sunlight each day, full sun being the best exposure. If you are an indoor grower, consider using a grow light for them to thrive.
Another great thing is that aquaponics uses less water than regular gardening. When you are using regular gardening, some water is wasted by evaporation or it seeps in the ground. But the thing about aquaponics is that water circulates in a loop between the fish tank and plants. This translates in the use of less water, which is then fresh for further reuse.
