Hi Everyone, I have a Koi pond (7000 lit) with a biofilter system of a capacity of 400 liter. The pond contains around 45 kg of fish, yes I know it is an overload, that is the reason I am interested in improving the water quality. As well as a few veggies as a bonus. The filtered water returns to the pond by gravity. I am wanting to install a few grow beds in the return flow to the pond. Any suggestions as to what medium to use in the grow bed ? What veggies do well in Aquaponics. Thanks |

I am not sure what media is readily available in South Africa but there are a number of forum members from your part of the world they should be able to advise. From memory Brian Fanner and Francois are from SA do a search on their systems. As to plants basically anything you can grow in a vege garden over there. |
