I guess that you are new to the forum, otherwise you would see that every second thread is vaguely or directly connected to bacteria, or lack there of..

Perhaps SEARCH for nitrogen cycle.. :headbang:

And I think there is some good information in this web site

You can get a hint about how different bacteria produce different results, and this is no different to within Aquaponics

the BYAP information page ( http://www.backyardaquaponics.com/information ) gives a good summary...
http://www.backyardaquaponics.com/infor ... gen-cycle/

Wikepedia does a pretty good job for more detail https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrifying_bacteria


basically any aquarium / pond / aquaponics basically needs a waste treatment since the waste product from decomposition and animals is ammonia which is toxic to many fish etc. The bacteria convert the ammonia to nitrates which are then accessible as a food for plants and vegetation. Incidently the same thing happens in the soil of a garden.
