Aquaponics is an ingenious new technique which combines the needs of fish and plants. In short, plants, fish, and microbacteria are grown symbiotically in a soil-less environment.

The waste produced by the fish are decomposed by the naturally occurring microbacteria, and are absorbed as nutrients by the plants, thus purifying the water for reuse.

This ingenious closed-loop system means that the water never has to be changed, and the plants will grow organically with access to an abundant amount of natural nutrients and fertilizer.
