I really enjoy the ambiance of the system that you have created. It’s beautiful and productive. Aesthetics isn’t everything but it never hurts especially in a home. Those are some awesome fish as well 👏🏼
Thank you for the feedback. I also feel a system like this is a more resilient way of doing aquaponics. It gives you a bigger biodiversity with plants, fish and bacteria to keep the system stable. That will have the effect of less maintenance of the the system and a better experience and enjoyment for the person running the system. Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much for this beautiful and inspiring video! Your holistic approach using your landscaping experience is both visually stunning and efficient! I can't wait to watch your other videos and your class. I am just beginning to experiment with a chop and flip IBC this Spring 2023. I want to learn about the pumps and things first to prevent killing any fish or plants. I live in Western Corado, USA, in the high desert where the humidity can be very low at 12% and the temperature can fluctuate by more than 60°F in 24 hours. I am planning a rammed-earth greenhouse to extend the growing season and raise humidity. See you in class soon! Peace, Love, Joy and Blessings to all. Namasté
What a beautiful pond !! I love your ideas, especially the shrimp, in my experience diversity leads to balance and then to abundance. I plan to build a system of my own soon in my backyard, something with a lot of diversity.
@@AquaponicsRevolution congrats on your new move! Cannot wait to continue following your journey! I really could your expertise, trying to set up in the Caribbean lol
Super lovely pond! I love the large taro plants. I have two small ponds right out front of my house but I do get water snakes visiting and eating my goldfish and other fish. I want to build a stunning in ground pond like yours!
You can do it! I also offer a step by step training to help in the process. You can check it out there: melbourneaquaponics.clickfunnels.com/holisticaquaponics
Brilliant concept, superbly executed! Given the cold--water temperature requirements of trout (and especially brook trout), I assume you live in a northerly latitude. It must be nice to step into one's garden and see trout swimming among the plantings. One small nitpick: You identified the yellow-colored trout as a "golden trout." The proper name for it would be "golden rainbow trout, a color mutation of a regular rainbow (Oncorynchus mykiss) discovered at West Virginia's Petersburg Fish Hatchery in 1955, and selectively bred to provide variety for the state's fishing public. The true golden trout (Oncorynchus aguabonita) is native to the Sierra Nevada mountains of California. Golden rainbows have now been distributed widely within the United States, and are also known as Palomino trout or vermillion trout.
That’s cool, brook trout and golden are two of the finest. You could also have a compost worm bin near by and feed them the odd treat. Looks like lots of fat fish in there…. I wonder what happens in summer, do you have a water chiller?
Great video! My biggest fear would not be algae, but rather all the plants literally taking over the place. BTW, the Nitrats could be used by watering a green house with the water and the fish poop in an automatic fashion. Means next to the fish pond you would also need a green house.
Great achievement vast information to venture of aquaponics breeding especially the trout breeding in plastic pond.very interested to venture small scale. Trial aquaponics breeding trout.
Yes, they need cold water, but the ideal temperature is at 16 degree celcius, but they can tolarate tenparture as cold as live under ice, or as hot as 20+ degrees celcius (in this range of temperature the trouts are on critical conditions, but if they have good aeration, pure water, and without giving them a lot of food, they can survive)
Thanks for sharing this. Do you mention at all how big the pond is? How many liters or gallons of water is that? Seems like a big difference is the size of the pond relative to the grow beds. Awesome for the fish and great for a backyard setup where you can do that, but not really scalable for most people. I mean I like the idea of giving the fish a better life, but if your objective is to grow as much food as possible in a limited size backyard, then I think you produce much more vegetables from an aquaponics system than fish, so you want to have as many grow beds as can be supported by the fish's waste. Intrigued by the idea of an in-ground pond though - food for thought.
I am not if you take in consideration the quantity of plants and bacteria 🦠 growing on the surrounding of the pond. It makes the whole system very productive
You are right Dooley, brook trout males have a very different shape to classic trout. They are actually very often compared to wild sockeye salmon. See this picture there:en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sockeye_salmon
Would love to see the amount of edible plants you're able to produce here. Is the growth rate of the crops similar/higher to a standard aquaponics setup in your experience?
Yes it is, the classic IBC aquaponics is a good way to start and understand how aquaponics works but once the knowledge is built, it's time to move to the next step :) This setup is around 5 to 6000L
@@AquaponicsRevolution I bought a 20 litre aquarium 2 years ago "to learn the theory of aquaponics" and now I've got a 450 litre fully-planted filter-less tank in my kitchen 🙃 (just like you said - trimming plants is all the 'filtration' you need if you do things right). It has lots of ornamental fish and plants, but there's nothing to harvest, lol. I think it's time to actually move from aquaculture to aquaponics! Your system is inspiring, thank you for sharing 🙂
@@AquaponicsRevolution sorry for all the questions, but what do you do with this system in the winter? As the plants slow down growth do you just reduce your fish numbers to zero? Or do you reduce feeding because the fish have lower metabolism? P.S. Let me know if you're ever in Northern England/Southern Scotland, lol, I want to pick your brains! 😂
@@banksarenotyourfriends Excellent point! It really depends on the species you are growing. Most fish will significantly decrease their food intake. Some species still eat a lot and a close management of the setup is required. Sometimes feeding needs to be slowed down to allow a smooth winter.
Hey I just saw your video, but I'm still really confused about the pipe work you did in your grow bed to go back in your pond... I try to crack the mystery ^^
The water is going from the fish pond to a swirl filter, then to the grow bed and then a bell siphon flushes it into a cascade returning to the fish pond.

It’s what I need instead of a useless pool of water.

I love watching your videos, I have learnt a lot from you. It brings back memories from when I studied aquaculture. Your systems are great.

I don't have a chiller, the pond is pretty deep and it allows the water to remain cool enough to go through summer without reaching 24C
Great video! My biggest fear would not be algae, but rather all the plants literally taking over the place. BTW, the Nitrats could be used by watering a green house with the water and the fish poop in an automatic fashion. Means next to the fish pond you would also need a green house.
Yes Jens, you are right. I use my aquaponics water to water my classic plants too.
could also just pump it to a drip feed
@@jodynesbitt Ok, but he also needs to get the mud and poop out from the bottom of the pond. This would cloak the drip line.
Wow that's absolutely amazing I'm wanting to do the same congratulations
Go for it Brett!
Very impressive! Do you have a method to remove the solids that build up in the fish pond, like a swirl filter in an IBC set up.
Yes I have 2 Swirl filters, see my other videos 👍

One of those male brook trout look like a short body fish. Is that just what they look like when they are fed super well?
You are right Dooley, brook trout males have a very different shape to classic trout. They are actually very often compared to wild sockeye salmon.
See this picture there:en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sockeye_salmon
Yes I’m a Canadian brook trout fisherman, they get fat like that instead of long, often called “footballs”…
Would love to see the amount of edible plants you're able to produce here. Is the growth rate of the crops similar/higher to a standard aquaponics setup in your experience?
Hi Joey, the planting surface area is higher than in classic aquaponics since we have the surrounding of the pond acting like a growbed.
How much maintenance is involved? Can you help people set a system up?
Little maintenance but knowledge. Yes I offer a bunch of trainings
How many gallons is that pond? It looks kind of small for all those fish.
This is so much more appealing than building one of the uglier UVI-type systems. How many litres of water do you think your system holds?
Yes it is, the classic IBC aquaponics is a good way to start and understand how aquaponics works but once the knowledge is built, it's time to move to the next step :)

All the best to you.
Do you have more videos of the restaurant around 6:10 .
Sure, here you are: th-cam.com/video/xzfEsVWPPNk/w-d-xo.html
Will this work in a colder climate with the plants etc. How cold tolerant can a system like this handle?
Yes it is but the plant species will be different

Hey man, you're awesome! If you tried traveling around teaching people about aquaponics and selling indoor kits?
Thanks! why not but I am not a fan of indoor kits unless they are ornamental :)
@AquaponicsRevolution Yeah but that's the point! Travel + teach aquaponics = profit! No?
hey, do you use bell siphons, because that just seems extra to me
Yes I do. You can also use a timer on your water pump if you prefer but a flood and drain system is needed in your growbed
Thank you for the video and hoping for many more!
You bet!
Beautiful set up!.... I have been really inspired by your all-natural aquaponics system with fantastic productive capacity.
Awesome, thank you!

How do you keep the water cold enough for trout? Any idea if something like this would work in Canada where we have hot summers and freezing winters?
Hi Pete,
the depth help to limit temperature fluctuation.
Also, a high oxygenation helps the trout to go though "high temperatures"
