Teach the fundamentals of a fast growing agriculture opportunity with this simple, compact and efficient design. This complete aquaponics system fits in about 6 square feet of floor space but provides a lot of value.

The top half barrel is used both as a filtration system and a plant growbed. The supplied perlite is a free flowing medium that works well for most crops. With almost 5 square feet of growing space you can plant and test a number of crops.

The two connected barrels hold almost 100 gallons of water. Both barrels can hold fish giving you the flexibility to separate sizes or species. This system will support 30 or more full size tilapia.

The system is self contained and needs no direct plumbing connections. The only electrical needs are for a small water pump used to recirculate the water. A heater can also be used for warm water fish like tilapia. Both can be run from a standard 120 volt outlet.
