Aquaponics is the combination of aquaculture (fish farming) and hydroponics (soil-less plant culture).
Aquaponics is the ideal answer to a fish farmer’s problem of disposing
of nutrient rich water and a hydroponic grower’s need for nutrient rich
water. Essentially, aquaponics mimics every natural waterway on earth.
It is used to grow food crops in a concentrated, yet sustainable
manner.
