New England Man creates automated Aquaponics system.






An automatic feeder distributes fish food at predetermined times throughout the day. The fish produce waste and excrete ammonia into the water. The nutrient rich water is pumped from the tank into the surrounding plants. A naturally occurring bacteria converts the ammonia into nitrites and nitrates. And then the nitrates are absorbed by the plants as a fertilizer. 

This process cleans the water and is pumped back into the fish tanks.
