<p>I might also recommend listing the functions that a media based aquaponic growing space fills.</p>
<p>1-a media bed supports the plants</p>
<p>2-a media bed provides solids filtration</p>
<p>3-a media bed provides bio-filtration</p>
<p>4-a media bed provides for worms</p>
<p>5- a horizontal media bed provides a place to set down your drink.<a style="cursor: pointer;"><img src="http://www.bkserv.net/images/Grin.gif"/></a></p>

<p>Where the filtration (both bio and solids) takes place in the media filled plant growing apparatus such as a gravel (or other aggregate) filled grow bed or matrix media filled Zipgrow tower. The water delivery can be constant or times and it may also be flood and drain, distributed trickle or constant flood. The media must be fairly evenly moist through most of it's depth to provide the necessary filtration for the system. A bed with only a thin flow of water through the bottom of it…</p>

A bed with only a thin flow of water through the bottom of it where most of the depth of media remains dry (as in a modified NFT) will not provide the filtration required.</p>
