What is Aquaponics?

Aquaponics is an integrated aquaculture (growing fish) and hydroponic (growing soilless plants) system. Aquaponic systems are gaining popularity and can be used to grow food for personal use or for commercial production. The most popular fish grown in aquaponic systems is tilapia. However, some growers have had success growing largemouth bass, perch, carp, crappies, bream, and some ornamental fish such as koi and goldfish. The plants that are traditionally grown in these systems are lettuce, other salad greens, and succulent herbs such as basil. Some commercial systems that feature densely stocked fish tanks can grow tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, and even melons.
