How does the kit work?
The GrowEasy Aquaponics All-In-One Starter Kit connects directly to your pond, tank or other water body and requires a pump with flow rate of approximately 1,500 to 2,000L per hour.
Once you’ve set up your pump (we recommend the Matala Magna Flow 2800) and beds, the water should flow from your pond to the top row of your aquaponics setup. This area will fill with water and overflow via a siphon to the lower grow channels.
Need a filter?
If you don’t already have a filter, we recommend the Biosteps 10 Pro Kit, which is suitable for fish ponds up to 10,000L or koi ponds up to 5,000L.
Where should I put my aquaponics kit?
We recommend placing your aquaponics kit as close to your pond as practical in an area where there is adequate sunlight and room for your plants to grow.
What fish should I choose?
If you don’t have an existing collection of fishy friends, we recommend species such as silver perch, freshwater catfish, trout, goldfish and koi. Fish should be fed high quality fish food daily (the higher the quality of your fish food, the better the yield you will get from your plants).
What plants can I grow?
You can grow almost any plant you’d like in this system. Some beginner-friendly varieties we recommend are: leafy greens, spring onion, chives, tomatoes, basil, coriander, parsley, oregano and thyme.
What maintenance is required?
Your aquaponics system will require the same maintenance as a regular garden. Plants will need to be cared for and pruned as necessary and will need to be removed/replaced when their growing season has ended. You should also vacuum out or clean your grow channels from time to time.
We provide free shipping to 95% of Australia, but there are some locations (e.g. Island and remote rural post codes) which unfortunately we cannot provide this option. Although rare, in this situation we will need to manually add the additional shipping costs prior to dispatch. If this is the case, we will contact you prior to sending the order and billing you an additional amount.
