How it works
Fish, plants and beneficial bacteria working in one connected system.
Aquaponics combines aquaculture and hydroponics. Fish produce waste, bacteria convert that waste into plant-available nutrients, and plants help filter the water before it returns to the fish.
- Ideal for STEM and sustainability education.
- Suitable for backyards, patios and larger projects.
- Requires the right system size, water testing and startup support.
