Advantages of an Aquaponics System over a Hydroponics System. Hydroponics has been a popular way to grow vegetables and it is working well. However it has several disadvantages, which are not found in an aquaponics system. Growing vegetables with this latest system, is fast becoming popular. Not only because of its simplicity and its effectiveness, but also because it provides fresh fish for the dinner table.One of the disadvantages of a hydroponics system is that it uses a lot of water as the nutrients, which are mainly mineral salts need to be flushed regularly so as the keep the nutrients suitable for growing the plants. It becomes a real problem of where to release the water full of chemicals. You need a CE meter to measure the level of nutrients. Some plants like lettuces need a low CE level. Tomatoes need a low CE level at the start and when the fruits are formed it needs a high CE level. So you need to have some knowledge of what is required for different crops. It also becomes difficult when you want to grow plants which require different CE levels. In an aquaponic system there are no such problems. It does not use chemicals. The fish deposit their waste into the water, which in turn is pumped up to the plants, which use the nutrients. The fish provide the nutrients aided by bacteria that changes the ammonia produced by the waste into nitrates, which the plants take up and in doing so the plants filter the water. There by keeping the water conditions suitable for the fish to live in. This kind of system uses only about 2 % of water used in conventional way of producing vegetables. The water is recirculated time and time again and again and so it is highly suitable for dry areas where water is precious. With a hydroponic system thousands of liters of water are wasted regularly. It uses also far less water than you would use in the old vegetable garden. Aquaponics has many advantages over the backyard garden.
