Any local businees like this?
#12
There are a lot of homebuilt aquaponic systems which don't require that much upfront costs. My neighbors are building one with two stock tanks (roughly $100 each at the feed store)and a small submersible pump they are running off their solar system using a timer so it only runs during the day when the sun is shining. There's also some PVC pipe and other odds and ends they bought, but the big parts are the two stock tanks and the bilge pump. They will end up with less than $500 in the system. At the moment they are just starting to build it, so we will see how it goes.

These things run the usual way of things. You can figure out how to build it yourself and save a pile of money or buy a pre-packaged "kit" and spend about four to six times as much money.
