Welcome to Organic Aquaponics

We hope you enjoy looking at what we have to offer, and learn something most of all! We want to educate people in the community about aquaponics, and breaking free from the reliance on processed, mass farmed foods that we all know as "fruit and veg" today.

Aquaponic Animation

For those that don't quite know how an aquaponics system fits together I found this cool animation on the type of setup I will be implementing. This setup type is called CHOP2, or constant height one pump (version 2). Essentially the sump pump feeds the grow beds, and the fish tanks, both of which then drain back into the sump. This process just goes around and around and around essentially providing the plants with nutrients all night and all day, which is why aquuponics works so well! Check it out (Dont forget to click the red "Start Pump" button on the animation):
