In order to achieve the best results, you will first need to have some basic information about what aquaponics means and how to get the most from it.

Aquaponics is a new type of farming which relays on the symbiosis between the plants and the fish. This means that the fish provides the plants the necessary food while the plants, by feeding on the fish’s excrements clean their water, thus making their environment a “comfortable and beneficial” home.

How to build a fully functional aquaponics system

Because your fish are highly sensitive to chemicals, but also because the fish will provide the plants with all the nutrients they need, there will be no need for you to use any pesticides or fertilizers to make your veggies grow bigger and stronger. You will harvest fresh, healthy and organic vegetables, without the normal struggles of a typical dirt garden.

As you can see the fish you place inside the tank plays a very important role in the success of your aquaponic garden. That is why, you will need to take great care of them, and at the same time you have to pay attention to the type of fish you choose.

While it is true that basically all types of fish are suitable for your aquaponic system, there are states in which different species of fish are not allowed to be grown inside the house. That is why it is best that before you populate your tank that you make sure that you are allowed to grow that type of fish inside your home.

Aquaponics can save you on your daily trips to the store and give you tasty, healthy veggies for your entire family. And if done right your favorite neighbors. But, to do this you have to take great care of the fish. They provide the food for your plants to grow quickly, healthy, tasty and beautiful.
