Good day Rob! Thank you so much for the shout out! Our low-cost system involves a custom 10 gallon shallow fish tank stocked with a bunch of nanofish (13 chili rasbora, 9 bumblebee gobies, colonies of cherry shrimp and snails). The baskets we use, have slats in the bottom with an air stone attached below for the same reason you mentioned in the video! The media we use in ours is basic aquarium gravel. The best part in our experience of having this incorporated into what was previously just a display aquarium, is the fact that we get to stock the tank relatively high, without any compromise in water quality. No water changes. No algae bloom either! For aquarium fishkeepers, this is a major win!
Thanks again for the shout out Rob! We hope to scale this up. These things can change lives! 😁
Is no problem at all folks & I know your system has given a few others some ideas to play with already. 😁👍
Thanks again.
The only thing that has stopped me from trying this project is that I'm concerned with microplastics released by the containers
Hi Rob, another top clip, your animations are always really great to help see how things work. I thought the inclusion of load of other people's systems was a really nice touch. Only thing I wasn't sure about was the bit about the mineralisation tank, just whether it fitted with the idea of it being a clip to get beginners into aquaponics? I know you have another great clip with full instructions on this already. Cheers, and thanks for your advice earlier in the week.
All the best
Thanks Andrew. I added the mineraliser in as some folks mentioned under other videos that they're concerned about the nutrients going to waste.
Cheers mate & have a top one. 👍
Ive seen pool liners in tractor tires being used for fish and grow beds. Quite funny. All free sourced. Above ground pools get thrown out every year up north where I am. They even pay for their gas selling the aluminum back to the metal people.
Both the tyres & pool liners aren't the best to use for fish & veg you want to eat. They will leach a load of toxins into the water from what I've read. The aluminium siding makes great free form garden edging. 😉
Cheers mate.
good to see successful small systems working,
There's loads out there Shane. Was swamped with pictures from the good folks out there in YT land.
Cheers mate.
This is soooo inspiring and I love all the examples
Thanks Sally. I was blown away by the amount of pictures folks have sent in for me to use.
Hope you folks are doing well.
Thank you, uncle Rob for this video! Salutes from Chile!
Thanks Aníbal. 😁👍
Cheers & happy growing.
Awesome, Rob, loads of ideas!
No problem Jennifer.
Hope all's well with you. 😁👍
Great video, Rob! I thoroughly enjoyed listening to the info.
Am glad you enjoyed it Mary. 😁
Hope all's well with you folks in SA.
Thank you for your video. Thumb up for you. I mainly am interested to raise gourami fishes to eat. I fall in love with that fish so tasty and delicious and good for health. I also do organic garden so one stone for two birds. Fish and veggie to eat. I find aquaponic makes sense and excellent idea. I have lot of items to build one already as i practice Reduce, Reuse, Recycle in my daily life for years.
Nice one What Must.
I hope the system grows you many healthy fish. :)
Great Video man Excellent work
Thanks Rob!
No problem Jeremy.
Cheers & have a top one.
Awesome job Rob, you have come a long way. Your animation and explenation are straight and to the point. I remember when you made the bell siphon video. Cheers
Thanks mate. I was worried someone might call me out for using the same animation over again. 😉😁
Hope all's well with you & yours BF. 👍
Good day Rob. Another great video
Thanks Stephan. 👍😁
Cheers & all the best mate.
Clearly explained, simply understood
Helped a lot with my first build. Thank-you from Australia
Glad I could help some.
We're based just west of Brisbane. 😉
Cheers.
"Flood and drow grainbed." 🤣 We've just 3D printed a little radial flow settler for my little tank. It's getting to be quite an elaborate setup for one goldfish and some basil plants.
I do trip over the words a bit Cynthia. B thinks I should add a few in just for a laugh.
Would love to see what you come up with once you've finished with the setup, it sounds very interesting. 👍
Cheers & have a top one.
@@RobsAquaponics I'm with B! I love seeing outtakes and bloopers, they are fun!
I'm hoping to put together a little video when I've got it all finished. I started with a tank I bought a few years ago, a little home aquaponics setup that never quite worked well enough to keep the fish or plants healthy and balanced. I put it away until I started watching your videos, got inspired and have been tweaking it to get better flow, etc. I'll let you know when I have something for you to see. Thanks!
I'm just coming up with house plans for my property and now I think I'll include a large north facing window in the kitchen for a herb garden.
Nice one Marcus. 👍 Hope the system grows well for you mate.
I love your videos! I’ve been doing bog type filters on my 40 gallon aquarium foe years growing bog type plants to keep my water quality up. I never thought about trying to grow food until seeing your videos. I am going into winter here. I’m hoping to gather a few odds and ends well it is cold out and trying a small setup in the spring.
That's great to hear JC. 👍
Hope the build goes well when the time comes.
Thanks for the clip Rob..
No problem Gideon.
Hope all's well with you mate. 👍😁
Very informative, thanks mate 👍🤠
Glad you enjoyed it DD.😁👍
Cheers & all the best.
Thanks for this excellent channel and video.
Just found this channel and really enjoyed the explanation of this system as well s great advice on harvesting ginger which I planted this year. Still have lot of green leaves so I’m thinking it’s still too early to harvest l though it getting cooler here (NE US). You have an excellent teaching gift and are almost therapeutic to listen to in these stressful times. Cheers my friend.
This was an awesome video, Rob ! This was quite helpful in my research ! I will send you a photo of my system when it's ready !
Thanks again :)
I'm glad the video has helped some.
Happy growing.
So interesting ❤
Thanks Rob.
Like.

Fantastic mate.
Cheers mate. Hope you get some enquiries. 👍
Well done, I am so inspired by these ideas!
Glad you like them!
Great channel!! Been learning a lot by bingeing it
Cheers Rick.
Hope the build goes smoothly when the time comes mate.
@@RobsAquaponics I started a (too small) 1 gallon tank to learn about keeping fish since I haven’t done that in like 30 years. It’s been a learning experience. Your videos have been a big help
I am starting to get materials to build my larger system which is exciting.
very good!!!
Thanks 🙏🏻 ur awesome rob bob your tips and tricks were a huge help much love. Sincerely from J
Great video mate.

Amazing. Hope i could do that too. Thanks for your video.
I hope the build goes well for you when the time comes Vie.
Sorry for taking so long to respond.
@@RobsAquaponics Thank you so much for the reply. Have a great time always.
I’ve been following Rob. I have 1000 lt IBC. 200 lt solids filter, bathtub sump and 4 growbeds ( 2 x 200 lt drums cut in half ) nearly ready to start cycling! $500 - 600 all up so far I’d say . Excited to grow my own verges! Considering cost of veges today….
That's great to hear mate. 👍 What fish do you think you'll use?
Cheers & have a top one.
Currently working on using a 14.5 gallon clear storage tote with a lid to grow in , using a betta for now, I plan on adding either feeder guppies or snails down the road. Im cutting holes in the tote lid and putting net ups in
Good luck!
For next small system I am planning to use an aquarium canister filter. Maybe a bit more pricey but will cost less in time and the filtration will be quite good
I have seen some relatively cheap ones at the local aquarium & have thought about getting one for a smaller system I'd like to build on the deck (if I get permission).
Cheers & have fun with the build.
Thank you
You're welcome
Love the content, will be accumulating stuff to start using this in the spring, not the time to start in North Carolina as we are truly into fall now.
Nice one Michael. Should have enough time to shop around for some decent bargains. 😉
Cheers & all the best.
@@RobsAquaponics found a chop and flip system with clay balls, a raft system, couple extra plastic barrels, pumps etc for $250 US about 300 miles from me, but about 50 miles from my dads house. Going to try to pick it up in a week or so. Cant wait for warmer weather to get it started!
@@michaelmackaman3572 Nice one mate. 👍
nice on mate
Cheers Josh. 😁👍
Hi Rob I've been watching your videos but since you have beginners guide to aquaponics, Im trying to add plants on my aquarium.
So I have a large aquarium that has filter that water runs on top of of the aquarium (not sure what's the technical term). Anyway I have been adding the clay stones on top. Usually, I had the biofilter such as bio balls, ceramic stones etc.
But now I'm experimenting it by adding spring onions on top with the clay balls. And so far it's doing great. I may need to add more freshwater fish
Nice one boogala. 👍 Hope they grow well for you.
Thanks for all the great info. Can I use kratky grow beds instead of a bed with a growing medium?
Not a Kratky bed as they just have standing water in them & the organic nutrients would go anaerobic fairly quickly.
Deep Water Culture (DWC) grow system is basically the same. They're basically raft beds that have a water turnover of up to once per hour & work really well with aquaponics. You will still need some form of biofiltration to convert the ammonia in the fish waste to nitrate though.
I can't believe that cheeky kookaburra stole your gold fish. In New Zealand, we have those small sacred kingfishers that don't cause any problems, so the fish are safe to swim around freely without being eaten.
great video as always! I was wondering if I could have the grow bed under the fish tank. do you think this setup would work? the fish tank water falls directly into the grow bed and then goes to a secondary tank where the water is pumped back to the aquarium. greetings and thanks for sharing your knowledge with us.
You certainly can mate. The water from the grow bed would fall into a sump tank where you would situate the pump. 👍
hoping to upgrade to my new used 2 meter aquarium before Christmas.. planning 2 rows of NFT on top 😄
Nice one Jens. 👍 I'm looking at setting up a glass tank on the deck with a small herb bed & some ornamentals.
Hope all's well with you mate.
@@RobsAquaponics that would be awesome :)
Hi Rob, love the videos. I have been watching yours and a few other aquaponics channels learning about it, but had not made a system yet. However I was thinking about adding a grow bed to my existing koi pond primarily to act as extra filtering. The pond has been stable for about 15 years and has about 50 koi in it , and is about 55,000 liters. I figure I could probably support a decent size bed in that pond, and since it's been stable without the grow bed, I can't see where adding the extra filtering of the plants could possibly hurt it...
You would have to feed the fish more.
You might have a few issues with low nutrient levels as bwakel310 alluded to above. It can't hurt to try & see how you go with just one bed. Maybe use some cheaper rock rather than the expensive clay to try & keep the price down. Maybe even some segregated baskets in the pond itself might be a better way to go.
Would like to know how you get on if you give it a crack.
@@RobsAquaponics didn't think about the possibility of being too LOW in nutrients for the plants. That's a good point though, if it's already stable it probably would be low, of course I could bypass some of the water past the existing bio filters, and I somehow suspect the koi would not be angry if I gave them a bit more food, I'll see about setting up a small bed this winter and spring. Thanks for the advice, if it works out I'll let ya know
@@MrRiggsad Cheers Adrian.
Hello found your video awesome and I started a small aquaponic by watching your video. But I'm having some trouble. I have an aquarium pump and water stay the same level in the aquarium as well as the plant area. But I have not put that much peddle is it because of this that my plant are dying!?
It could be a few reasons. Are they getting enough light? Do the roots of the plants look healthy? If the roots are rotting it could be due to not enough oxygen in the water.
Hey Rob I’m growing ginger in Ga and the winter is coming, wanted to know what’s the best way to cut back or should I bring it inside?
Hi WS. I would bring it inside if you get hard frosts that may freeze the top of the ground as it will cause the rhizome to rot when it thaws out. If your temp doesn't drop below freezing you could leave it out. We're in an equivalent to zone 10 here & ours does fine left in the soil & aquaponics through Winter.
Hi Rob. Enjoying your videos and bought your guide however the videos never load. Just keeps showing the buffering icon? HELP. CHEERS
Hi Katrina. Sorry to hear you're having issues. It's best to contact the Retrieve team as they host all the videos.
You can email them at helpdesk@retrieve.com & they should be able to help you out quick smart. 👍
Let me know how you get on.
Good day Rob. Does it good to put Solids Capturing Devices higher than fish tank and grow beds?
It helps if you can as it means that the clean water can flow from it via gravity into the grow beds.
Hope that helps & sorry for taking a while to respond.
Slight correction with the air stone, it doesn’t directly add oxygen to the water, it agitates the water surface, essentially enlarging the surface area, enhancing gas exchange o2 into and co2 out of water
O2 is also passed from the bubbles to the water on the way to the surface with the majority occurring at the surface.
Cheers.
@@RobsAquaponics makes sense since it is a air water “surface area”👍🏼

Thanks Rob,
I've signed up for your on-line guide and boy that's a really cool advice centre, I'm loving it, my daughter and I can't stop watching it, it's worth every cent.
@@VFRRiderFT Am glad you're happy with it Chris. 😁👍
Rob, I have viewed a few videos and am wondering if it's cost effective. After initial proof of concept small system(s), can I run a system capable of sufficient food to pay for its expense. Startup costs are separate from system continuous operation. Maintenance is part of total operating expense. I have 2 ibc totes to use as I expand. I understand if I am asking for too much info. A pointer to calculate cost to yield ratio will suffice. Climate is a factor I assume. I am in NEK near Canada. Until I get my geothermal greenhouse going I will need to harvest after 3-4 months. My geothermal is primitive setup. Just a 10ft deep trench circulating air that returns at 50° at all times.
If I can ever get wind or solar I could power a heat pump too. Or maybe a Stirling engine generator. Think big or go home, right.
Hi Daniel. It can be done but I have no figures or calculators to share with you sorry mate.
I look at it this way, the fish are home grown without the medicines that are fed to farmed fish that get imported (we're an island nation that imports farmed fish, go figure) so that by itself is worth it for me.
The Jade perch we use have a FCR (feed conversion ratio) of 1.6 so at AU$88 a 20kg bag it cost $7.04 a kg or $3.52 to grow them out to a harvest size of 500G.
The veg side of things will help up the cost effectiveness as well but I've never really attempted to factor that in.
Your plans sound very interesting & I'd be interested so see how your system progresses if you end up having a crack at one mate.
Cheers,
Rob.
😊
Is there any disadvantage to doing the method shown in your user example where they have the grow beds sitting on top of the water in the tank, thus eliminating the need for a pump?
You can stock more fish in a system that has extra biofiltration like the media grow beds. 👍
Hi, nice video, but i have some questions, will my setup work, if the the whole system will be in water? What i mean: for example there will be tank 100*100cm and 40cm height. And i will put 50*100cm busket 15cm heigt straight on top (it will be just 2cm out of tank) will it work? Or it must be out of tank?
It could work if I understand it correctly. The fish mag have a feed on the roots if they grow through the media into the tank though.
👍
😁👍
Hey Rob,
Would it hurt anything by introducing 1 water snail to my chop and flip barrel system to clean up any little bits of grime in the bottom?
One probably wouldn't hurt Leon. 👍 You can also get small fish that will clean the algae as well. Best to ask at a local aquarium as to what would work best in your climate.
@@RobsAquaponics Thanks mate. Im in SE Qld. Loving your content and advice.

Hi AR. All's fine & dandy here thanks mate. 👍
Hop you're doing well too.
Cheers & take it easy mate. 🍻
can you use an existing stock tank as a 'fish water' source? we have 200 acres with a few stock tanks, I'm looking at using 1 ti supply a few grow beds. is there such a thing as too much water/fish for the grow beds?
Hi mate. As long as the water is fairly clean it should be OK.
You can over do it with fish if you don't have enough biofiltration/media grow beds. Basically, they can produce more waste than the bacteria can handle & the system will crash.
Having too much water & not enough fish can be an issue as well. The nutrients just get too dilute. Have seen folks toss 50 silver perch into an inground pool & the plants did crap.
Whereabouts in OZ are you located if you don't mind me asking?
Cheers.
@@RobsAquaponics Thank you for the reply! I am wanting to do this in North-Central Texas, USA. Tank is stocked with bass perch (sun) and catfish. Its about a 40 meter diameter stock tank depending on the season and amount of rain for the year. I would need to pump the water up a hill beyond the fence/s to the house where I would put the grow beds (we have cattle that use the tanks for water) and then that's where I'm not sure what to do with the water from the grow beds,,, back to the tank?
@@seaphor665 Back to the tank would be fine. 👍 Am not sure that a tank that size would have a load of nutrients in it. Might be better to try floating some baskets or rafts in the tank first to see how the plants grow first.
Hello! So I’ve been planning to make this work as my capstone project but my group kept running into issues. We had to be creative and make our own unique design since our teacher said that many batches have done it before us already. We also ran into a problem regarding nutrient deficiencies which is our main issue. Any help or suggestions in solving that? We would really appreciate it.
I like to use soluble kelp powder as a general tonic as it includes a load of potassium. You only need a VER SMALL amount though. 3tsp turns my 1600L of water very dark.
Hi, Rob im in south Australia how much does it cost to run a pump annually? ruffly
Hey Michael.
Power is fairly easy to work out. Multiply the watts of your pumps by 24 (hours) then by 365 (days).
eg. 80w pump would use (80x24)x365 = 700,800 or 700.8kWH.
Next look at your power bill to see what they charge per kW & you should have a ballpark power bill figure for running the system.
Hope that helps mate.
@@RobsAquaponics Thanks
My first system was an herb garden mounted like jayendra's. it was growing very well until my mom killed all the fish.
Sorry to hear that KB. Have you got plans to build another system?
@@RobsAquaponics yep I'll be working on it once I'm finished repairing my house.
Bro does the pump need to be running 24/7 ?
There are some designs where folks turn it off at night. I prefer to keep the pump running for the fish so they have optimum water quality 24/7
Sooo I have a question and that is flow rate. So I get the system puts out let's say the good water that's filtered as fast as the pump is putting the bad water back into the tank with the fish. Since it's gravity from filter to filter back to the tank which gets pumped back into the fish tank to start again. So how do you manage the return water when let's say the good water first stop is this bed, and then this bed. Do you turn down the flow rate at the pump so less get pumped back which slows everything else down. Guess I'm having a hard time with my brain when bed 1 needs this much flow when bed 2 needs this much. Which means the flow back into the return tank at the bottom which get pumped back to the fish. What's the best way to manage the flow rate of the water from bed to bed so that the return tank doesn't go dry
Sump tank sizing does play a part in it. I like to make sure that it's volume is 50% the combined total volume of flood & drain grow beds. That will make sure that there will be enough water in there to cover the pump & also give a safety net of extra water to lengthen the periods between water top ups.
Not sure why this is my recommendation, but that beard is mesmerizing..... I guess some of the fertilizer rich water ends up on the beard!
🤣 The beard gets a good dose when I pop my head in the tank to say "G'Day" to the fish every morning. 😉
So the roots start holding their own dirt...that makes sense
They can get very thick Alyn. 👍 I think the largest root ball I removed was a cardamom plant who roots took over a whole IBC grow bed.
Why use grow media? Why not grow the plant roots directly into the tank?
Fish would eat the roots. The media also acts as a biofilter that homes the bacteria that process the waste.
💕💚✔💚💕
😁😁👍😁😁🌺
Hi can you give me a total costing and materials of this? Big help for my proposal ASAP thank you and God Bless!
It would depend on a lot of factors such as number of fish, volume of plants just to start with.
14:00 those kitchen pads have chemicals unfriendly to fish. Just order bulk filter sponges online instead.
The ones we get are not impregnated with detergents & are made of the same material as some aquaculture filters.
I do know some scrubbers do have additives put in them.
Me living in a place where I can’t have a system outside because it’s too cold 🙁🙁🙁
No basement or garage you could set up a small tote system in mate?
Fuck that's a good beard 👌👍
