Can this be applied in Malaysia? This technique is quite rare here. Would
love to start my own.

@minhakd Part 2: Water use on a normal farm is higher than in an aquaponic
farm. (In aquaponics, the plants take water as they need it and the rest is
cycled back into the fish tank. In a ground farm, some of the water is lost
as evaporation [more so than an aqua-p system]) So, in terms of water
conservation, aqua-p farms are better. Plants grow faster in both
hydroponic and aquaponic grow beds than in traditional agriculture. I’m not
sure why.

In Australia we have these things called Megabins – used for vegetable
transport and other crops. Perhaps you can get something similar for use as
a fish tank.

Thanks a lot for the movie. I also have the comprehensive step-by-step
video lessons teaching how to make your very own home made Aquaponic
system. Its simple that even your grandma can do it! Look at the following
blog to acquire more information:

nice video! Very interesting! Just seems too hard for a home garden. This
needs lots of space. Jason Niu from waytobetterlife.blogspot

I would love to do this, but I have a question. I live in Ohio and was
wondering what I would need to do to keep the fish alive over winter?

The best way to make the fish container would probably be in the fashion of
a large concrete cistern. The planting trays could be bought at a
hydroponics store, but basically any large plastic tray will work, like
rubbermaid bins or whatever. Most designs for hydroponics will also work
with this design, check around on here, there are lots of videos.

Thanks for your video! We at OneCommunityRanch (dot org) are getting ready
to build a huge aquaponics system, set up permaculture gardens and build
eco homes sharing all our plans with the world. Im a pioneer for this
community and exploring the web gaining info on these systems. Thanks again
for your video!

Lowes, Home Depot, Tractor Supply, Home and Garden Centers may be able to
order them for you. Farm Supply stores carry them.

If the perch take 12-18 months and trout only take 6 months, wouldnt you
rather go with trout to have a continual trout harvest in less time? The
trouts 6 month growth period roughly coincides with a vegetable growing
season as well. What are the advantages of using a fish that takes 12-18
months to mature?

What type of plant and animals are best for a Northwest temperature? Have
you compared your data with regular agriculture and aquaponic plant growth?
If you had can you share it with me? I also need to ask if you have
compared the energy and water use comparing regular agriculture and
aquaponics. If you had could you please share it with me? Can you make a
profit out of aquaponics? How? Have you thought of having a Community
aquaponics project?

I think I’m going to use a “Stock tank” (watering tank for horses).
Available at farm supply stores… and shallow “totes” (storage bins) from
wal mart.

@minhakd If temperature is a problem, you could always move your Aquaponic
farm indoors (Greenhouse). As for energy use, on a weekly basis a normal
farm only uses electricity to power a sprinkler system and then harvesting
is done with gas powered tractors. But a farm is labor intensive and time
consuming. Depending on how you build it, an Aquaponic farm will either use
a water pump constantly or several times a day. Not at all labor intensive.
Cost of electricity is about equal
