The Aquaponics shelf combines hydroponics and aquaculture [fish culture]. In this setup, plants are grown in hydroponic systems, [tray 1-3] with their roots immersed in the nutrient-rich effluent water from the fish tank. This enables the plants to filter out the ammonia that is toxic to the aquatic animals but is useful for plant growth. After the water has passed through the hydroponic system, it returns to the fish tank. This is a continuous cycle. This setup is perfect for users who like growing plants and also like to keep fishes. The system has 3 hydroponic trays, [refer to the flow diagram] that can be populated with plants. There is also a filter that is attached to the outlet of the fish tank. This may or may not be used as per the specific requirement of the system. The trays and the fish tank can be slid out of the shelf for easier usage. All fittings are threaded and can be easily disconnected when the need arises.
