The aquaponics system is an ecological circular agriculture system that combines aquaculture (fish) and soilless cultivation (vegetables). This closed-loop system uses fish waste as natural fertilizer for plants, while plants purify water for fish, creating a sustainable ecosystem.

• Fish Ponds: Customizable size and depth (1-2m for edible fish) using durable materials like concrete, plastic, or fiberglass
• Water Quality Equipment: Includes physical/bio filters and oxygenation systems to maintain 5-8 mg/L dissolved oxygen
• Fish Species: Compatible with tilapia, catfish, trout, carp - selected for growth rate and adaptability

• Planting Beds: 15-30cm depth for leafy vegetables, using substrates like expanded clay or coconut coir
• Irrigation System: Utilizes NFT (Nutrient Film Technique) or DWC (Deep Water Culture) methods
• Plant Species: Ideal for lettuce, bok choy, spinach, and herbs like mint and basil

• Pipeline System: Corrosion-resistant PVC/PPR pipes sized for system flow requirements
• Water Pump: Sized for flow rate (e.g., 500 L/h) and head (e.g., 1.5m) requirements
• Filtration: Includes activated carbon filters and UV disinfection for water purification

• Resource Recycling: Fish waste becomes plant nutrients, purified water returns to fish
• Chemical Reduction: Minimizes need for fertilizers and fish medications
• Biodiversity: Supports diverse microbial life and ecological relationships

• Increased Yield: Dual production of fish and vegetables in same space
• Cost Reduction: Lower water and fertilizer expenses over time
• Diverse Products: Multiple revenue streams from fish and organic vegetables

• Healthier Produce: Chemical-free vegetables and drug-free fish
• Organic Certification: Meets standards for organic production
