  • Tilapia correction: The ideal temperature should be
    21-29 °C (70 to 85 °F)
    Thankyou to those that pointed this out.
    www.desima.co/blog/2016/4/29/t...
    1. Environmental Conditions
    First consider your your environment, is it hot, cold or tropical? Choose a fish that suits your environmental conditions.
    2. Feed Sources
    What food to you have access to feed your fish? Will you grow duckweed? Will you breed black soldier fly larvae?
    3. Purpose
    Are you wanting fish to eat or just for producing waste to feed your plants?
    4. Size
    How big will your fish tank be and how many fish will you stock? Is it a small desktop system, that is great for a siamese fighting fish(betta) or a big system, that would be great for delicious Murray cod.
    5. Is it legal?
    The fish you want, could be classified as an invasive species. So remember to check with the local fishery department.

      dizzxy Yes, it's really sad to kill and eat living beings when we don't need to. We can happily live on a plant-based diet. I've been vegan for years now. Very healthy. Might consider ornamental fish for aquaponics, but basically I just want the plants for food.

      @@dantemadden1533 Hi there! What vitamins do you get from dead animals? Vitamins A, B, C, D, E, K can all be obtained from plants. D3 is the one most people (of whatever diet) lack, and it's fed deliberately to farmed animals so meat-eaters get it from the meat. Might as well eat it directly without passing it through another digestive system first!

      @@sarahvegangarden4822 D3 is also found in fatty fish like Wild Salmon, Sardines and Halibut. You're typically not going to get that from muscle meat but rather fish and eggs. Plants also lack preformed Vitamin A retinol, Vitamin K2 MK4, omega-3s DHA and EPA and heme iron which is much better absorbed than non heme iron. (Plants also have less favorable amino acid profiles usually lacking BCAAs, methionine, glycine and taurine in meaningful amounts) The minerals and protein in plants are also lower quality due to poor absorption via anti nutrient content.

    Also something interesting to note. Cold water dosent kill fish. So when big fish farms move there fish from the pond to a trucks they have a tank that’s set to a colder temperature so fish can survive if it’s hotter it can kill the fish. That’s why when you buy pet goldfish they tell you to set the bag in the aquarium so the water in the bag will gently level out to the temp in the aquarium that’s extremely important fish are more sensitive than you may believe

    I remember putting flathead catfish in one of my aquaponic systems... it was a horrible idea because they are difficult to handle... 6 of them died and i still have no idea why... the ratio of fish to bio filtration was perfect and there was no solid waste buildup, food was protein rich.... it may have been an infection or disease... i replaced them with goldfish after some big adjustments

    Blue gills are native to my area so I was thinking of capturing them then fating them up while leaving a sandy bed to see if my best fish would breed. I have a worm farm that became a black solider fly farm though I still have a decent amount of red wigglers.
    My question is how much do they need to eat and how big does the tank need to be to allow them to grow to eating size?
    I'm hoping to create an inexpensive system.

      Agreed. Trout need colder even, to avoid illnesses and breed properly. They also need currents. Difficult.

The water at the top of the lake where they aren't swimming can freeze, the water in the lake in the next county can freeze, the water on mars can freeze. As long as the water they are physically in doesn't freeze they will be fine.
