diy vertical aquaponics system | They Are Always Hungry These Tilapia

diy vertical aquaponics system


No matter how you feed them, they are always hungry. Tilapia has short digestive track they eat a little bit at a time but most of the time.
These are in my CRAFTS set, and they are getting bigger. I use fish pellets to feed them.
Never over feed fish, especially in Aquaponics. Water will get murky and Ammonia will shoot up. If you see foam or bubbles in the fish tank just stop feeding them for at least one day and continue after water had cleared.
Its okay for them to go hungry, they will start to feed on the algae making water and tank cleaner.
Surplus greens is good, above is the Sambung Nyawa plants that I cut and throw it to give them something to bite.
Tilapia will eat greens, one of the best is Kangkung these they will nibble in no time at all. However before feeding them greens make sure they are really hungry.
There are loads of green from my Aquaponics growbeds and its fish food.
After 1 day in the fish tanks, this is what left of the plants. Those stems can still be use as cuttings.

diy aquaponics tote | Gutter Growbed Revisited

diy aquaponics tote


Did gutter growbed in March 2010, that time I was using loop siphon and it is difficult to get right. This time Im doing it with Bell Siphon and for planting Strawberry plants.
Main reason why I am trying this again is to reduce the amount of LECA needed since Ill use pot for the plants and it will be easier to do Strawberry in rows on a step.

I need to make a shorter bell siphon since gutter is not that deep, water height the most would be three inches. Therefor the siphon will need to be cut and tailor made to three inch or less. I will try using 20 mm strainerbell siphon modified to suit. A 15 mm StrainerBell would be a good size but I had not tried this size for long.
