hi there, hope to see you next time, your more than welcome to come and see the aquaponics system, regards clay

[lexam55]

you are using soil !!!!not good!!!

[greenecorevolution]

@lexam55 we use gravel not soil, we do use sawdust for seedlings though.

[MYTZHELLE]

can i used this technic on a chicken farm?

[greenecorevolution]

it maybe that all farming will be done this way at some point in the future, but it takes energy to break down animal, so i would say solar and wind can play there parts to provide the energy to make it cost effective.

Life is one big experiment so give it a try, best of luck

its a pitty that the goverment budgets for for so much more than this project which could teach kids from a young age that this is the way to go and i think evetually if you are not self efficient or dont know someone that is YOU WILL NOT EAT

[darkmaureca]

It is the most beautiful system I have seen so far. Congrats

[headlightguy]

Beutiful video. I have some questions. Were you taking care of the PH of the water and the iron for the plants? are rabbits contributing with their waste to the fishes water? I will start with something small and see how it goes..

I would seriously be interested in seeing a diary/vlog of your project. Especially keen on seeing a layout/design pamplet to copy/ start from. Hearing your ideas on how you would improve your system would definitely be helpful. Changing the world Rule #1. If you want people to copy your example - make it idiot proof :)

Awesome work BTW - very inspirational!!

Oh and please note: those rabbits need more room than was shown here!!

@isiVideo Eagerly awaiting your vid!

[HeaanLasai]

Great video, but the music shifts rapidly between left an right which is a bit nauseating. Sure I can turn off the sound but I didn't know if you were going to say something. Again, great system.
