And man, fish can grow a lot of plants when they get to work! One of the coolest things about Aquaponics is that it mimics a natural ecosystem. Aquaponics represents the relationship between water, aquatic life, bacteria, nutrient dynamics, and plants which grow together in waterways all over the world

How does aquaponics work?

Aquaponics is a sustainable way to grow fish and produce at the same time. Aquaponics is a system of raising fish and plants in an aquatic environment to produce food.
