Any Aquaponics enthusiasts here, please share you experiences,system setups and ideas.As much as possible, this thread is for Aquaponics discussion only. If you're looking for Hydroponics, this is the link: https://www.istorya.net/forums/hobbie...droponics.html

Here's my customized Aquaponics system using the 3 methods found in the internet:

The whole system uses the 3 types of Aquaponics: NFT, Media based, and Rafting.

To give you basic ideas of what these 3 types are:

1. NFT-Nutrient Film Technique can be used for backyard or commercial but is the least commonly used. This is where the plants are in pots and a small amount of water is trickled through the base of the channel where the roots access the water.

2. Media based which is the most common design used in backyard systems uses either gravel or clay pebbles. The plants are sown directly into the media. Gravel is used in the flood and drain system where the grow beds are flooded and drained periodically allowing water to circulate through the system on a regular basis.

3. Deepflow/raft is mainly used for commercial systems. The media used is water and rafts made from styrofoam or a floating board with holes for pots to allow the plants to sit in where the roots are always immersed in the water.

Here's my customized setup. My first Aquaponics project. It could be working or not. This is just an experimental stage. Keep you updated of the development.

bro ask lang ko sa 3 ka method asa mas successful ana? i min asa mas hiyang ang plants?. naa lage na hood imo set-up ma igo na sa sunlight?.

di pod na mo melt o ma dunot ang ugat kung mag sige ka basa iya roots?.

For now d pko maka ingun kung asa ang successful sa 3 ka method sa ako na set up kay on the way pa ang mga seeling.

Pero so far, mabuhian man ang 3 ka method ug tanum..

Ang rafting method ideal lng xa sa mga vegi's na mabuhi ug direct sa tubig like kangkong ug pechay..

Ang media-based kay ideal xa sa mga tanum nga mobunga like kamatis,okra,talong,etc.

Ang NFT mura mabuhi mn ang tanan na tanum pero ideal kng xa sa leafy vegetable kay econsider sad nimo ang space ug ang nag hold niya..cup raman gud ang vase niya.

Ang hood sa ako setup for protection lng na sa direct rain kay d paman stable ako system kay 1 week old paman xa...Pero sa init wala problema kay maigo ra xa during morning ug hapon...

Pero under observation and expiremental stage pani xa...mao d pako makaingun kung asa effective ani 3..

It's all natural from the water. No chemicals added. Not the poh of the fish but the ammonia that is being produced naturally by the fish.

Wow, I remember a project like this that won a national science award
