Links and Resources

SOS Planet Public Library is a resource that Roger Pilon has brought to our attention. He has offered to upload and add documents to this site so contact Roger Pilon to send him files for it or post them here and he can add them to the Library.

The name of the site is SOS Planet Public Library and the section dedicated to aquaponics is here at the Aquaponics Section.
On top of that, all the documents of the library have been indexed. This means that you can search for any words from within any documents.Let's say for example that you want to make a research about aquaponicsin Africa. What you will do is to type into the search box these towords aquaponics and Africa. What you will get is alist of all the documents that talks about aquaponics in Africa with,like Google, a brief description off each documents.
If you want to make a test you can go directly to the Search Engine at http://documents.ponics.org/research/my-search.php.

It has been brought to our attention that the above links are no longer functional but here is the update from Roger

This is just to update the link for the Public Library posted above (as I can't edit it). The new link is here: http://theplanetfixer.org/public-library/. There is a section dedicated to aquaponics...of course!. Around 100 documents in this particular section.
There is also a full text search database that you can consult: here at http://theplanetfixer.info/. Documents about aquaponics and more! Mostly sustainable documents!

This thread has many links to articles and other things of interest so I figured it should be accessible from here Aquaponics in Action USA

Comment by Sylvia Bernstein on January 29, 2012 at 9:06pm: Eric, I've known Dr. Resh for years, and just recently corresponded with him when he endorsed my book. Would you like me to put you in touch with him so you can ask him your question?

Comment by Eric Warwick on December 10, 2011 at 10:18pm: So, I'm reading this hydroponic book, Hydroponic Food Production by Howard M Resh (recommended), that I need my periodic table for and I came across a farm called Del Mar Farms near San Diego that "integrated aquaculture and hydroponics". I've tried searching them, so does anyone know anything about them? Sorry this was the only group I could think of that would be relevant to my question.

Comment by Sylvia Bernstein on November 17, 2011 at 6:26am: Who wrote it, Sahib? It doesn't say that anywhere on the linked page that I could see...

Comment by Sahib Punjabi on November 17, 2011 at 5:15am: Look...for all of you who have smart phones that accept Android Apps..

Aquaponics Guide

Comment by Meg Stout on April 14, 2011 at 7:28pm: That's really neat - Ooo - makes me want to add floating raft beds to my system, just so I can do that. :)

Comment by Harold Sukhbir on April 14, 2011 at 6:46am: Hi Chris,

Creative use for your roots.The roots are a good source of fiber and a high percentage of several nutrients. Raft growers should consider using this as a base for developing homemade fish feed since they acquire a large amount of root mass on a monthly cycle.

Comment by Sahib Punjabi on April 14, 2011 at 6:15am: What a great move. No waste and a natural compost process :-)

Comment by Chris Smith on April 14, 2011 at 6:10am: Before processing rafts of lettuce I will float them in the fish tank for a while. The fish will eat the roots down to the net pots saving me the work of trimming and gives the fish a snack. Letting the fish eat roots is recycling nutrients back into the system.
