What is Aquaponics

So this being my first post of Our Aquaponics Blog I figured I should make a post on What exactly is Aquaponics?

This question could have such a long answer but we will try to keep it simple.

If you are wondering what Aquaponics is all about, then you should know that it is a new farming trend that brings together a symbiotic relationship between the fish and plants. This method utilizes the waste materials of the plants to be fed to the fish while at the same time the waste of the fish is used in fertilizing and supplying the nutrients that plants and vegetables need to thrive.

This system is being used more and more due to its simplicity and water efficiency.
The plants clean and filters the waste water from the fish keeping the harmful bacteria out of the fish tank.

When thinking about Aquaponics

Think about this system as a single unit and not separate ones. In order for it to function, the water coming from the fish tank is being pumped to the grow beds. In this cycle, the water coming from the fish is being used and is being fed to the Vegetables and plants. The fish water is being filtered by grow medium or by the river stones and it is being siphoned back into the fish tank. Therefore, the water is clean once again and is now ready to be used again by the fish. The cycle of this system will just continually go on giving mutual benefits to both the fish and the plants.
This farming technique is usually made up of a tank with various fish of your choice with existing grow beds used specifically for vegetable farming or ornamental plants. This new farming technique is really amazing because once the cycle starts, the water in the tank remains clean and clear and stays ph balanced all throughout. The water is being recycled and only very minimal amount is being added in order to replace the water that evaporated and was used by the vegetables.

 
We could go on about Nitrates and Nitrites,

But were just after the simple facts right now.  There are so many different options to list you will just have to keep up with my blog to see them as we explore and learn what Aquaponics is about. Along the way I will build and show what my system looks like and all the problems that I may have occurred so that you dont have to!

lets talk about David

This is a quote from Davids twitter.

rabbiman

theyre talking about me... I dont know why.... DX
3:58 PM Nov 11th from web

So I have decided that David really isnt what he seems to be. He is really...a transformer type creature. He is hiding in his ultimate form and his real form is pictured to your right.

What a magnificent transformation!

Trent severn waterway ♒♒♒ ♒♒♒♒ ♒♒♒ ♒♒♒

I tell ya, one of the first things that caught my attention when looking for houses in the area was the Trent waterway. Not that when your looking for houses you say, 
its just gota have a river, no river, no deal!.

But honestly, it doesnt hurt. 

While driving to Toronto in the spring we would pass the Trents locking system around Cambleford; this was the year Foxboro just about turned into Atlantis and the Trent waterway was a torrent of such epic proportions that even Odin would be impressed.
Things have calmed now, there is peace in the air,
but its beauty and power continue on.

There used to be a car in this photo and its actually really easy to see the correction area if you zoom in. This can be your (wheres waldo) of the day, Have fun!

When I arrived there was a good 50-100 birds. They all took off after a few minutes and I got this shot, I NEED A TELEPHOTO, I KNOW.

I was thinking of trying to photoshop out the orange fencing but hey, for a blog, its Onatural. 

As you walk down the stairs theres a small man made wetlands area to the right growing native plants/grasses. Its really neatly done, reminds me of a Babylonian water garden in a small way.
(As shown below)

Here is where a lot of people seem to like fishing, makes sense, Ive watched a few River monsters shows now to understand, there always seems to be either big fish or something worth while around these fast flowing lock systems. Not just locks, but any little torrent like areas in the river.
I suppose its one of those things, once youve seen it done before, you know where to look. 
Thanks River Monsters!  *chuckles

This cloud makes me hungry for marshmallows
Mmmmmmm.......... Homemade marshmallows... 
half sugar/ half honey... 
*Drools*

 

I just had too.

THE WEEKEND EDITION OF THE DIGEST

So, we meet again and again I welcome you to this Weekend edition of Ozzies Aquaponics Blog:

And from Murray Hallams Forum:
Aquaponics in schools

---

Hi Murray
Murray I have been asked by 2 schools (1 in Brisbane and 1 on the Sunshine Coast) about aquaponics and one of the questions they have is how many other schools have a system in SEQ.and could they have a look at one ?
A person from the school has seen a aquaponic system already but I think they would like to talk to someone at the school about how they went about it.

If anyone else has an idea on this I will pass the information back to them.

                                                       ...oooOooo...

Commercial Aquaponics
meet new people almost every day who are interested in pursuing commercial aquaponics and ask me for direction. They usually have no background in farming, hydroponics or aquaculture but are looking to take their lives on a new path. They want to be a part of the unique potential for global change that commercial aquaponics offers.

I usually counsel them to start by reading my blog post “Commercial Aquaponics: 10 Things to Consider Before Taking the Plunge” and take the time to

                                                       ...oooOooo...

In restoration, hands get wet and brains fed
LANAI CITY - While conservationists work to restore the native watershed on Lanaihale tree by tree, theyre getting some help from students at Lanai High and Elementary School.

For the past two years, science teacher Lisa Galloway has been getting her students out of the classroom and into the greenhouse, where they learn ecology and also grow seedlings for the watershed restoration effort.
                                                       ...oooOooo...

Aquaponics - Organic Gardening Plus Fresh Fish

If you are an organic gardener or looking to start a garden you may want to consider designing an aquaponics home system. The combination of aquaculture and hydroponics has created a unique marriage where you can grow fresh organic vegetables and raise fish at the same time!

In a nutshell the way the system works is your fish produce waste which of course is
                                                       ...oooOooo...

Home Aquaponics Systems
Home aquaponics systems are opening up the possibilities for many people to grow their own organic food. A lot of people who may not have a fertile plot of land or even outdoor space at all, are finding aquaponics to be both practical and a lot of fun. This is very important, because if something is enjoyable, people are more likely to stick with it.

Touring the Food Revolution
By Heather Zydek
Yesterday I took my three girls to Sweet Water Organics for a tour of their facility at 2151 South Robinson Avenue in Milwaukee. Sweet Water is an indoor urban fish and vegetable farm in operation since 2008. Ive been following their progress over the last couple of years and figured it was time to check the place out.

Mowing With A Scythe: Custom Fit Snath Makes It Easy
Ive used a number of different scythes over the years -- most were borrowed and used mainly to cut vegetation in places where I couldnt manuver the tractor and mower. Some of those scythes were heavy and clunky, but worked nicely at whacking back brush. Others were light and almost flimsy
                                                       ...oooOooo...

Best Tools for Fencing
Many people with several acres eventually want to raise livestock. To contain animals on a pasture, you will need a good fence. The following tools will help you build a good fence and maintain it over time.
                                                       ...oooOooo...
Ok Friends That should do for now. Just a clarification The Aquaponics area of the web is fairly saturated with Aquaponics 4U which you will have noticed I have steered well clear of. This is causing me some concern as it means that my sources are being filled with the one thing. with no doubt as many trying to sell it as there is people to buy it. If Im right that is not profitable except...well I;m sure you can figure that one out. The other thing worth mentioning is You may notice that Im introducing areas  related to A/P that should be benificial to our blog members and visitors. O.K. Thats a Wrap
Take Care

Nubian goats Ontario Canada ◍ Meet Nabob and Mocha our coffee coloured goats ◍

Pet Nubian goats

Grass fed goats

Goats in Canada permaculture

This is mocha, hes a wild one. He loves eating/licking things hes not suppose to ( pressure treated wood, chicken coops, clothes on the line ), But he also enjoys the good stuff like watermelon, cantaloupe and oats. His favourite game involves head-butting anyones hand, but of the two, hes the baby of the bunch, always needs a companion and CANT be alone.

Anglo-Nubian Goat

This is Nabob, He is gentler then mocha and he use to be inseparable, but has recently been gaining courage, bravely trotting off around the property. Hes much pickier the Mocha and doesnt like fruit, just his oats, grass and maybe a few trees.
