300-Gallon Aquaponic System

Roe Sie, from the King's Roost in Los Angeles, gives a tour of his shop's aquaponic demo unit. Aquaponic gardening is the practice of growing fish and plants together in a mutually beneficial system. Expandable to more than eight grow-beds, plus 40 pounds of tilapia, this system has an attractive, elegant, and effective design, with a surprisingly small footprint-- about 9 x 12 feet, or the size of a prefab greenhouse. If you're interested in getting FOUR TIMES the yield of traditional in-ground gardening, using 90% LESS water and no fertilizers or pesticides, check this out. You don't even need a big yard or lots of space. It's perfect for urban farmers who crave organic produce and clean, safe, sustainably raised fish. Here's the comprehensive info you need to decide if aquaponic gardening is right for you! Check out the King's Roost website at http://kingsroost.com for more DIY projects!
