This blog is about building an aquaponics system with no prior experimentation or hands-on experience into growing plants. After watching hours of YouTube videos and scouring the internet for a simple way to make this system, I decided to give it a go myself.
Fish produce high-nutrient water that will eventually kill them if not cleaned. Plants need nutrients and have the ability to filter water. These ideas are combined in aquaponics which utilises these benefits to produce a highly productive and low maintenance farming process.
What I used:
- Grow bed
- Fish tank
- Pump
- Tubing (diameter depending on what fits the pump)
- Smaller river pebbles
- Medium-sized rocks
- PVC pipe 48mm outer diameter
- PVC cap 48mm inner diameter
- Pipe 22mm outer diamater
- PVC elbow 22mm inner diameter
- Male/Female fittings 22mm inner diameter
- 2 rubber washers 22mm diameter
- Drill with 2mm drill bit
- 20mm spade bit
- Cat
Nice cat.
