Tasting before wasting

Optimizing our African Catfish feed

My project for the past 8 weeks has been to look at how we could use waste streams from both the aquaponics greenhouse and the kitchen to feed our catfish to make the system as circular as possible.

PH meter

Brand new easy to use PH & Temp meter

To ensure the right living conditions for our fish we need to measure the PH daily. The liquid tests are quite a hassle and they're not always that accurate. So we bought an electronic one.

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