Brilliant build mate very clean, strong and well thought out. 2 pieces of information you might find useful - volcanic rock if you have access to it or clay balls have twice the surface area and half the weight. And Jebao DC pump, very efficient W/lph. Slap a solar panel/charge controller and one of those pumps and it'll be totally power independent, no need for grid power.

I like theaquaponic system but I live in a small apartment. I would like to talk to you about the moringa plant leaves or powder. I know you grow a lot of trees and give away to friends. I desperately want to buy powder in capsules. I saw your video how you process. I trust you. Please I'm struggling with serious diseases and desperate. Thank you.

the sump tank could be higher which would make it more power efficient? it seems like it is overly low, or is that for the ground heat?
@thehealthawakening5 жыл бұрын
Thank you for your comment, but there is nothing wrong with the position of the sump pit. The key is to get a pump with the right head pressure. Due to the heat in Honduras, we need to have ways in cooling the water as much as possible.

In other words, he totally agrees with you... You are correct though, extra height of water is extra work, extra work costs extra energy. Beautiful build but otherwise

Hello shawn, iam wondering how many fish you can put in each tank?
@thehealthawakening4 жыл бұрын
In each tank I try to keep around 60 fish. Bear in mind this is tilapia, every fish species has its own stock density. Also, you can only stock your fish tanks according to the size of your grow beds.

Hi sir you have explained well sir but please tell me how to calculate bio ball and what type of motors are used and please show in slow way construction of aquaponics system
@thehealthawakening4 жыл бұрын
Well, I didn't calculate the bio ball, I just filled up the bio filter with them. Many people don't even use bio filter for a system such as mine due to the grow media in the grow beds. I like to do an overkill on everything. More biological surface area for bacteria growth, all the better. Also, it keeps my grow beds cleaner. I have other videos for a slower process in the building process. Also, you can purchase my instructional videos on my website at www.morningstaraquaponics.com

Hi Shawn. Bought your E-book and is using it for inspiration. Guess you can say that I am making a half version of this one (1 fishtank, 4 growbeds). I decided to go with flood and drain (Bell siphons) instead of continous drain. But I was wondering why you are not using bell siphon on this setup. Could you elaborate..

Awesome! Thank you for the purchase. I offered both methodologies. It's really your preference. Many will argue there is no difference as in plant production.

@thehealthawakening4 жыл бұрын
I sand the plastic barrels and ibc totes with a heavy grit sandpaper. Then primed with latex exterior primer and then used a latex exterior flat paint. It's not a perfect solution, but it's the best we can do in Honduras.

Hello Mr. Shawn. What was the cost of sourcing materials and building this system in US dollars? -Thank you.

The system itself would be around $1800 USD and the Greenhouse included, $3000 (but we bought the shade cloth here, I don't know the US prices. It's very expensive here.)

Is this an aquaponic or hydroponic? Cause I don't see the fish. And the same setup could be used for hydroponics?

It is aquaponics. There are two way to start a system with fish or fishless. We started it fishless. It's a starter pack you can buy online that has the ammonia and bacteria to begin developing the nitrification process.
