Happy with the mesh filter I am running charcoal on the other side. This is the output of the pump.

2026 aquaponics market estimates swing wildly: $47 M in one report, $1.6 B in another. The disparity flags a shaky commercial base. Tech works, but bad system design still sinks farms. The water‑saving loop looks good until you ignore the bacterial cycle—then you trade efficiency for collapse. How do we balance yield and microbiome stability without overpromising? #Aquaponics #SustainableFarming #CleanWater #EcoTech

Archangelica is absolutely unsuitable for aquaponics. A single plant took over all of the nutrients, leaving other plants basically starving, overgrown and clogged the 110mm pipe all the way up, with like a 30cm root plug.
We were afraid to take it out, worried if the rest of the weakling plants would take over the water purification, but today the pipe completely clogged and no wiggling was helping anymore. We had to tear it out and proceed to remove the roots. It was... Massive. And heavy.
Hoping the rest of the plants will keep the water pure for the fishes.

📰 Aquaponics for Food Security in South Africa Takes Root in Schools and Farms 🐟 🌱
🗒 "These systems use up to 90% less water than conventional agriculture because the water is recirculated rather than wasted. That means families can keep growing food even during a drought."

If you're attempting #aquaponics, I don't think #archangelica is a good idea. A single plant took over all of the nutrients and prevented other plants from growing. Its not a good plant for aquaponics.

Y'all know I like indoor hydroponics for growing food in small spaces like apartments, condos, and townhomes.
Check this project out!
Indoor aquaponics!
Combine raising fish/shrimp and using their waste to grow your veggies!

Darn, mosquitos in the aquaponics pond despite the mosquito dunks in there. Cleaned out the upper section (which also had a lot of algae). Bottom section is being patrolled by many koi, so no issues down there. Put in new "dunks", not sure why they are not working. #mosquitos #aquaponics

Aquaponic farming combines fish farming and plant cultivation in a single sustainable ecosystem. By recycling nutrients naturally, it reduces water usage, minimizes waste, and supports healthy crop production.
In this guide, I explore how aquaponics works and why it is gaining attention as a sustainable farming solution.

Pulled out a lot of mint. Monster mint... 1.5 feet high. It loves fish poop. But will take over. We use almost zero mint in this household, don't know what to do with it except compost it. #mint #aquaponics

55 gallon bucket for goldfish. Originally wanted to grow Tilapia to eat, but winters are too cold without supplemental heating ($). 28C (68F) to 40C (86F). #aquaponics

Failed bin. There is a microcrack there somewhere. Caused by weigh being put unevenly on the bottom, as the whole bottom was not supported. Fixed on the new system by putting plywood under the bin. #aquaponics

Aquaponics system needed a reset, after s structural failure on the plastic bin (crack appeared in it due to water weight.. probably 4+ years of use). #aquaponics

Blessed Beltane to all who cerebrate the traditional holidays.
Almost on que, we had our first blossom in the pea patch. These were planted about a month ago.
This is the 1st day of summer, for those in the northern hemisphere and for those in the mid-latitudes your garden should be ready for planting. Our location is mild and the bed is protected so we got a head start.

Lettuce seedlings die as soon as I transfer them to net cups. Other plants don't, It's just the lettuces. Any advice? How to strengthen lettuces before transferring or support them right after that? I'm losing dozens for every surviving one.

@holly
you could do what I do and just follow folks that post cool #blender projects. I don't post much yet but I'm working on learning #freecad to make precision assets for blender.
right now I'm documenting an #aquaponics project at #pasca (a community garden in CA USA #sfba )

Could urban farming feed the world?
From back gardens to hi-tech #hydroponics, the future of food doesn’t have to be ruralUrban agriculture (UA) covers everything from hi-tech approaches such as vertical farming and soil-free processes such as #hydroponics, #aeroponics and #aquaponics, to guerrilla gardening on the urban fringe.

Pea progress at Plant and Soul California #PASCA ;
We are taking full advantage of the space for #aquaponics. The area taken up to fencing for the protection the pond has been turned into a veg-garden. A demo of a conventional container garden.
Our late season peas are doing great. From the 11th of Oct to the 24th we planted peas as the trellis fence beds were built and prepared.

TILT: Things I Learned Today; Yesterday Jarad tried something I had been too afraid to try; he moved the pump feed line. It looked like it was brittle from sun damage but it moved just fine. He redirect the water flow back into the pond so they could work on the grow beds and the fish would still get of O2. #aquaponics #lessons #pasca

Big day for aquaponics rebuild. Tim and his team finished cleaning and repositioning the grow beds for pre-phase 0 operations. None of the beds have been planted so there is nothing cleaning the water. We should probably not be feeding the fish until we get some plants back in. #aquaponics #pasca #democracyInAction #garden

The fish pond area lost its big grass shrub but gained a garden bed area under the aisle fence. These wells could become a "picking" garden. Things that can climb on the hog wire; peas, beans, indefinite tomatoes etc. The pond is about 2-3 inches above the surrounding area. The flagstone overhangs the edge to protect the pond liner from the sun.
More to be done in this area. #aquaponics #pasca #democracyInAction #garden -
while in CA USA, I found #PASCA, Plant and Soul California;
and their #aquaponics project.
#TILT
also found a good resource for info.

That was my thought for the day. Now to do something positive to actually help.
I'm peddling by #ebike to help a bunch of folks construct a community #aquaponics system that will demonstrate how we can decentralize and de-carbonise our food supply system and provide more food security to folks where ever they live.
Please feel free to add a comment about what your are doing today that is positive.

What are those holes? Are those from pests?
No, it's expanded clay marks. Turns out that if you naively pack the expanded clay balls in a planting cup for #aquaponics #hydroponics or #aeroponics, the plant can suffocate and die. This is how it looks like when it happens. That's why my book recommended adding some coco fibers or other soft filler material to the cups. I ignored it.

Hey #gardening people
I need some Bacillus thuringiensis to kill of mosquitoes in #aquaponics
Do you think I can get it from the filth that caterpillars produce when they eat my cabbage? Wikipedia says it's in caterpillar gut. Maybe I can just dump that to the aquaponics filters and it will kill off the mosquitoes?

In my first year of #aquaponics, I'm wasting too much of the vegetables. My note to self and the advice to others starting their journey:
Switch the mindset to #abundance. Eat what's growing without waiting too much. Don't worry, there will be even more.

I'm making kale chips again :)

I came to feed the fish in #aquaponics and noticed they behave so weirdly. They were swimming on the surface, with mouth above the water. I tossed the feed in and they didn't even noticed. I panicked, realizing something is wrong. Turned out its an air stone that fell off in the #fish tank.
Two or three minutes after tying the air pipe the fish started to calm down. Still acting weird, slow, but at least not on the surface. 10 minutes later they were eating their dinner. Oof.

Okay I didn't expect THIS MUCH 🥬 in #aquaponics.
