Aquaponics is an ancient, sustainable method of farming developed by the Aztecs. It uses ninety percent less water than traditional farming methods and combines aquaculture (raising aquatic animals in tanks) and hydroponics (cultivating plants in water). The AquaFarm concentrates all the amazing features of large-scale aquaponics into a three gallon tank where can bring fish and plants together.
The fist waste is broken down by beneficial bacteria into nutrients which are pumped up and upcycled as an organic fertilizer for the plants. At the same time, the plants take up the nutrients and send clean water back to fish. As long as this innovative closed-loop eco-system is set up, All You Have to Do is Feed Your Fish! Or add some water when it is needed I guess. But you don’t need to worry about changing water again because the plant will take care of it for you.
