Aquaponics /ˈækwəˈpɒnɨks/ is a sustainable food production system that
combines a traditional aquaculture (raising aquatic animals such as snails, fish, crayfish or prawns in
tanks) with hydroponics (cultivating plants in water) in a symbiotic environment. In aquaculture, effluents
accumulate in the water, increasing toxicity for the fish. This water is led to a hydroponic system where the
by-products from the aquaculture are filtered out by the plants as vital nutrients, after which the cleansed
water is recirculated back to the animals. The term aquaponics is a portmanteau of the terms aquaculture and
hydroponic.

Aquaponics ... spelled Aquaponik in the German
language is the use of aquaculture and hydroponics to produce organic vegetables
and healthy disease free fish. While both of these farming techniques exist in Austria, the combination
of the two is rarely seen.
Aquaponik (im Englischen "aquaponics"
) .... ist die Kombination von Aquakultur und Hydroponics um 100% Bio-Gemüse und Fische
(Speise oder Zierfische) zu produzieren.
Beide Produktionsarten sind in Österreich bekannt, jedoch kaum wird die Kombination in Form von
Aquaponik verwendet.
