  • A new system!

    Thanks to the workshop participants

    Last friday we built a new system. It's about time too, because the catfish are a little bit overstocked.

  • Structuring processes

    Backing up our assumptions

    Our oldest system has been running for one and a half years now and we've seen happening a lot to it in this time. Ebs and flows, births and deaths, seeds and fruits. To have this experience is nice

  • New baby fish at the Fabriek

    Clarias gariepinus | African sharptooth catfish

    After the deaths of around 400 of our fish due to a power failure, we were sadly left with two empty systems. Time to take action, before the bacteria in the systems would die as well.

  • Miniponics succes

    Many people want it at home

    After two days of workshops using the miniponics as a demonstration model, we can say it's a big succes.

  • Big fish, big food

    We just learned something new! Lately our big fish (they're approaching 300 grams now) weren't eating very well, but we couldn't find a cause. Until we ordered new fish food for them.

  • Workshop

    with new system design

    Mediamatic wanted an aquaponics system in their greenhouse office at the Fabriek, so during the workshop we built one upstairs. It's a new design, because the tower wouldn't fit underneath the glass...

    The Mediamatic Aquaponics Team was invited to build an installation at the Museon in Den Haag. It's become part of an exhibition about the future of cities.

  • What is this?

    Mysterious symptoms on leaves

    Last sunday we saw mysterious symptoms on some of the plants. The leaves look like they miss all their chlorophyl, but the fibers are still there.

  • Too big, too many

    The catfish are growing

    Yesterday we experimented with different techniques to measure our catfish.

  • End of exhibition Eindhoven

    De etende mens finished

  • A Silly Beast

    Choked in his friend

    On the morning of Friday's workshop, we found this floating around in Tower 2:

  • Back in circulation

    A change of scenery in two weeks

    Whaaaaat! So much can change in two weeks, it's unbelievable! When Saro and I entered the tent today after Christmas family visits, surprise after surprise greeted us.

  • Enormous vertical aquaponics farm in Chicago

    In an abandoned warehouse

    There has been some talk in the aquaponics community about the question whether aquaponics can be done commercially succesful. Here's an example, it's called FarmedHere

  • Aquaponics in deserted factory Manchester

    From the Guardian

    Excerpt: Orchards, crops and a fish farm will fill the empty spaces of a former printworks as the Biospheric Foundation comes to Salford. Christopher Arden reports

  • Prevention rather than cure

    Old saying true for us

    Fish are like humans. They have all kinds of slumbering diseases and they have an immune system that helps them defeat the pathogens. Just like us.

  • Shit

    Better be safe than sorry

    For a few weeks now, tower 3 has been having troubles. The water looked cloudy, the fish weren't eating, in fact, they were gasping for air. We measured everything we could, but couldn't find a cause.
