L.E.A.F.S. (Lacombe Educational Aquaponics Foods System)
Currently, our project is developing an aquapoics fish system inside our greenhouse. This system will allow us to properly, with license, raise and sell talapia fish.
Currently, our project is developing an aquapoics fish system inside our greenhouse. This system will allow us to properly, with license, raise and sell talapia fish.
The tank (featured below) is still currently under construction, but eventually, a full pump and filtration system will be installed. The pump will siphen the ammonia produced by the Tilapia fish into individual plant-filled tubs, where specially developed bacteria-covered rocks will work with the plant to convert the ammonia into nitrates and nitrites.
EcoVision students have been researching the life style of the Tilapia fish in hopes of getting them soon since we now have the proper license.
More info to come!
