  Gotta up your hydroponics game bro! Raise fresh water prawns are bigger and you can grow hydroponic greens over them which are sustained by the nutrients from the prawn waste.

    They call those setups aquaponics. It’s a really cool system and one I would love to have as an indoor farming setup some day when I can finance it.

    Currently I die a little inside when I do aquarium filter cleaning and water changes. The amount of nutrientns I cannot re-use is saddening. So much good fish poopy going to waste.

    Another cost consideration is the food safety licensing and whatnot you would need to have.

      If you pick up coco coir (an inert medium for hydroponics when plants need a bit more rooting space) you can dump that sludge right over top to water whatever plant you have growing in it.

      If it ends up getting kinda gross, take it outside and hose a bunch of water through it to rinse it, good to continue. But mostly it just causes the coir to break down a bit faster than it otherwise would, so this is basically like adding compost continuously.

      Doesn’t work for every plant, but does work for a lot of them! I have potatoes in such a setup right now, and it’s pretty swanky.

      You can add a third tier to the system: fresh water tilapia. The waste from the tilapia feeds the shrimp and the water from both fertilize the plants. The idea is to replicate natural nutrient cycles. The whole setup can be done outside in warmer climates, or indoors using LED grow lights. I’ve seen outdoor grow setups done in old in-ground swimming pools.

  Aquaponics is great, you can start with a small tank, a few 5 gallon buckets for gravity and media filters, a a simple water pump to make the filters water go up a shelf into a grow bed made from a big bakery container (filled with clay balls), a bell siphon to bring the water back to the fish tank, some pvc pipes for the piping. Grow lights, sump tank, water heater, and pH tester are optional but recommended.

  Start with tilapia which have a wide range of temps and pH they are ok with. But honestly I don’t like the flavor of the greens it produces, dirt is the way to go for cabage and lettuce if you care about flavor, unless we are talking about a survival situation. However for things that have their own flavor like herbs, this setup works well.

  I feel like ornamental shrimps are probably more lucrative. The fancy black and white ones go for like 30$ each and you can fit a lot of them in an 100 gallon aquarium.

    Market is probably smaller, though.
