That's all fine and good but those PET bottles don't like UV light. They will start breaking down and releasing micro-plastics into the water and fish and then the people who eat the fish. Don't get me wrong, it's still neat.

If you add an air stone you would be accomplishing four things…. one you would help to make the water a little bit clearer because you would be helping the bacteria to do its job and to grab give you a better crop and you would have healthier fish because they would be able to process oxygen at a higher rate along with your plants benefiting!!! 👩‍🌾

Finally a video with no talking and no showing off... just straight info.TYVM

Even after learning so much in university, I am still humbled and realize how little I know: amazing idea! 😀

For those asking what kind of plant it is, the title of the video contains ...growing water convolvulus, so that is what the plant is. Here is what google says about it - Ipomoea aquatica (water convolvulus), called water spinach, or swamp spinach, grows abundantly in tropical regions in Southeast Asia and is used extensively in cuisine in places such as Vietnam, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Indonesia. This ingredient works great in stir-fries, soups, and other dishes where a mild, green flavor would benefit a recipe. Despite its name, water spinach is not really spinach, nor is it related to spinach. It's also not part of the brassica family, so it's also unrelated to kale and its bitter leafy green ilk. Instead, water spinach is part of the morning glory family and has long vine-like stems and bell-shaped morning glory-like flowers. Ipomoea aquatica is known as kangkong in the Philippines, kangkung in Indonesia and Malaysia, rau muong in Vietnam, pak bong in Laos, and trakuon in Cambodia. Its English names include water or swamp spinach; sometimes it's referred to as Chinese water spinach, or ong choy in Cantonese. Water spinach is a semi-aquatic plant that thrives with little or no supervision. In fact, it grows so quickly that it is considered invasive in some regions in the U.S. where it has been introduced, but in Southeast Asia where it is used to cook myriad dishes, water spinach is never invasive. On the contrary, it is perceived as a culinary blessing because it grows so easily and is therefore sold very cheaply. There are many varieties of water spinach; some are shorter than others and the leaves are of different lengths and shapes. All, however, have hollow stalks from which the leaves grow. Both stalks and leaves are eaten. Water spinach is used in stir-fried dishes or added to soups.

This is what is called a breakthrough in agriculture. Utilize plastic waste to be used as a planting medium. Incredible... to be an alternative for farmers. Greetings from Indonesian farmers 👍👍👍☺️

I am proud to share your knowledge how to make backyard fish pond, if a people of this world do the same work you did and this world never goes crisis.

I love watching videos of people's ingenuity ! Especially when it's from places where people carve out what some would consider a meager existence . I see alot of these from Asian countries ! Beautiful work

I like the way they let the temperature of the water equalize with the fish still in the bag. An important detail, don't want to shock your fish.

Look at how efficient these people are and they are giving the modern world a great example.

I'm adding this to my next project list, thank you for uploading. 🙂👍

Cool stuff. You used what was available like water bottles. Only long term issues I see is the plastic will degrade with UV light. May end up with microplastics and fish may ingest that plastic.

Absolutely wonderful a very useful project thanks for sharing with us 👍

the best part of this is he did it wiith no moving parts or pumps, etc, proving it can be done...this is the simpliest aquaponics setup i ihave ever seen, definatly wilil use this in my setup.

Fantástico vegetales y el acuario es estupendo , gracias por compartir , bendiciones desde Guatemala

Just stumble over your channel, and so impressed with this idea, that i will try out in my retirement years, as i dont have a big back yard now, thanks for sharing of such good useful ideas, cheers, PD

Napakaganda ng multi purpose space farming na ginawa mo brother. I'll try it too. Thank you so much for sharing this idea of yours. Very impressive demonstration. Excellent one. 👍👍⚘🥀🌷👍👍

Made it look so easy. Well done

That’s brilliant! 😃 thank you for sharing this, I would like to try this.

OMG , its enjoying place Nice combination , super awesome Informasi yang menarik dan menyenangkan , memanfaatkan botol plastik menjadi desain ruangan yang bagus

Wawwww..." thank you so much for sharing your idea.. Really thank you so much. When I come back to my country. I'll try this idea. It's a brilliant idea mate. God bless you. I've been watching this video 3x. I was so amazed. Thank you once again. 👋

The thing I love most about aquaponics is that it requires you to be innovative. I got a dozen plastic bottles sitting in my recycling bin and a dozen ideas on what to do with them thanks to this video.

This is very professional work, also reuses the plastic bottles. Recommended for fish farmers. I think this plant will absorb the excess ammonia from the fish waste and use for their growth. Amazing tech. Absolutely wonderful a very useful project ,thanks for sharing with us

Wooow bagus banget idenya, panen sayur dan lauk di satu tempat.. luar biasa pertanian dan perikanan

You guys are really do very well. The patience for arrangement the bottles and making this is great.

That is amazing. Being able to breed fresh fish, which also contributes to the water and the way it interacts with the plants. Very clever.

Finally I got what I am looking for, thanks for the wonderful physical demonstration.

Vidio pertanian ganda yg keren tdk perlu lahan yg besar,trims sdh berbagi vidio ini,sangat berguna bagi yg tinggal d perkotaan halaman kecil,,sukses teman🥰🙏👍

Loved your video from buffalo NY. I am very new to gardening. So this is extremely good for me to watch.

Mantap ide kreatif berkebun di kolam ikan. Terima kasih sudah berbagi 🙏

Nice one. Thanks for sharing this technique of planting kangkong with fish pond at the same time

Excellent idea. Unfortunately lacks commentary though to some it may be self explanatory. A few things I would like to know are:- 1. What seeds exactly did you plant in the plastic bottles? 2. What type of fish did you release in the water? 3. What is the name of the feed that you gave to the fish? 4. What is the duration of the project from start to finish? 5. What amount of fish did you harvest? 6. What are the dimensions of the fish pond? 6. What are the various type of fish that you can grow or cultivate using your idea? 7. Do you think this kind of concept would work indoors or specially in buildings dedicated to fish farming using cemented or large plastic containers in buildings designed or dedicated for this purpose? and 8. Finally what is the material cost you have incurred in building this structure and are there any other hidden cost and also mention after how many months can this exercise be repeated? I agree this above questionnaire is rather long but I have special interest in projects of this nature particularly in harvesting tilapias. Please answer and oblige.. Also let me know whether this project serves you and your family only or are you able to do a commercial enterprise? Thank you in advance.

Great video. Will try a smaller version myself. Pomoea aquatica is a semi-aquatic, tropical plant grown as a vegetable for its tender shoots. This plant is known in English as water spinach, river spinach, water morning glory, water convolvulus, or by the more ambiguous names Chinese spinach, Chinese watercress, Chinese convolvulus or swamp cabbage, or kangkong/kangkung in Southeast Asia, ong choy (蕹菜) in Cantonese, and kōngxīncài (空心菜) in Mandarin or tung choi (通菜) sometimes in modern Cantonese.[2][3] Its place of origin is not known. Tung Choi Street in Hong Kong is named after this vegetable.

mantap cara nya ini bisa dua kali panen nya panen kangkung dan ikan lele nya juga mantap mas bro

harvest fish and vegetables. Smart tricks for gardening and raising fish.

Amazing to see how big the fish gets with minimal effort

Along with agriculture and gardening videos you could make soundtracks. I would love to have a couple hours long videos of the bird sounds and music you had in this video just to listen to. Very nice. Very relaxing.

Enjoyed this video very much. Anybody can do this and grow their own food. THANKS !!! ✌🏻♥️

Thật tuyệt vời, cám ơn bạn đã chia sẻ, có dịp nào đó mình sẽ học tập theo

Add Bio filter, with bacteria, you will have nitrate from the fish wast, now you have more amonia from this missing, keep your good work ! nice growing system

Parabéns, técnica maravilhosa, muito obrigado por compartilhar.

Good idea po... Gawa ako nyan sa bahay namin... New friend watching from Abu Dhabi. Thanks for sharing lodi..

I really like seeing content related to agriculture, with creative ideas like this. Thank you for the knowledge, my friend 🎈🎈

Absolutely beautiful from beginning to end from your garden to the fish to the bed to the way you displayed it all beautifully done

Beautiful video 👍👍👍🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰 BEST WISHES FROM PAKISTAN

That is was amazing salute to your creative mined sending support my friend from Phillipines

فكرة حسنة ، بدلا من إحضار ماء السمك فانك قد أحضرت السمك بنفسه

It's cool... I would worry about the BPA, BPS, etc., leaching into the water though. : / Maybe glass containers next time? ;)

Do you eat or sell the fish to be eaten? Great vid, thanks for sharing!

This video is amazing. It makes me sad that I do not really like to eat fish. Fish seem to be some of the easiest animal to farm for protein. And to have the fish poop to feed the plants. I love the setup!

A VERY NICE IDEA TO REDUCE WASTE AND EARN EXTRA INCOME AND FOOD

Thank you for sharing! Even though I do not yet own land for myself (here in the USA) I am inspired. Lots of good can grow from very little. Cheers.

Browsing your video is like reading a good book! I have benefited a lot!. Thank you for your hard work!🥰 Your channel is great. I'll never get used to saying it is worthy of a million likes! Fully watched! 💯🥰

Incrível parabéns pelo trabalho

Every houses must have backyard gardens specially the poor. Para maypag kukunan ng supply na pagkain.

I'm very impressed after seeing video that there are some part in the world where a invasive WEED is grown in aquaponics.... Very Talented.👍👍👍👍👍👍

I would recommend to put gravel or sand in the bottles instead of rich soil. First you don't need it here so don't waste it, second you get less problems with algae.

Greetings from our friendship from Indonesia 🙏🏾, Always success and hopefully more success farm channel

We can use your ideas backyard aquafarming Thanks you sir

Brilliant! I enjoyed this very much. Thank you!

Nice video... I'd like to know if there's need for to change the water at intervals. If yes, what intervals? Anticipating responses. Thank you

Background so cool 😌😌

Very cool wish you would’ve separated fish from bottles with 8 inch hardware cloth then you could’ve put rice straw around the bottles and put crawdads would it help keep water clean

Amazing video, great content!💖😍 God bless u and your family. Thank you for making us happy and smiling...🌹Keep rising and shining... sending lots of Love and care 💕from Sydney, Australia.

"Modern problems require creative solutions."

Do you remove these plants completely or leave them to resprout and produce a new harvest in the future?

I have been using plastic for nearly 70 years and am not sick nor dead so I think I am okay.

Thanks for your video. I found it really interesting. My question is about the plants, I see the name of them but what do you use them for? Are they edible or are they ornamental… Just interested to know. Thanks and I think your video is just perfect the way it is.

Fantastic idea and execution! However I do have concerns about the use of plastic bottles in terms of lengthy exposure to sunlight or high temp (e.g. sun light) and the risk of toxic chemicals leaching into the water.

Super, มันเยี่ยมมากเลย ❤

its a dream and it will happen in future…for now i’ll keep this treasured ideas

Nice video, but i am still wondering where are the remaining 1350 bottles.

Selamlar sevgiler sizi severek izledim. Bende köy videoları çekiyorum. Kolay gelsin 🤗🙏🏻

saya dari Indonesia, menyukai video inspiratif, salam kenal dan sukses 🙏

Great way to reuse plastic bottles and the way they are harvesting fish from the same water As they use to grow the crops .

Just amazing! Wish you good luck for the future!

Wish there’s more explanation... like how long did you grow the fish; how did you manage the water; are the plants edible?..

Amazing beautiful its so good idea its help the family to eat a fresh fish and vegetables sending love and support thank you 🙏🙏❤️

Thank you 💕💕💕 Faruk Ramgonj

Nice post! I have a few questions. 1. What is the name of plant? 2. Do you change the water, if so at what interval? 3. How many weeks or months did you harvest the fish and what did they weigh? Thanks for the post, it's awesome!

Simple, rough, easy to manage, very good

You're a great content my friend Watching from Caloocan City

Very pretty build. For long term success it would be best if the sun never touches the water and you build it a way to remove solid waste from to fish. Thank you for the video I enjoyed it.

I like it very cleverly imaginativeVERY clever bravo super

Great job except bit concerned about use of plastic what is the alternative? Secondly how many days after dis u grow thos fish to this size.

Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩🇧🇩

Aku dapat vt ni masa lockdwon ..bagus juga buat tambah2 kegiatan .

Thank you for a great video on an interesting project! Just a suggestion for future videos: maybe you can add some labels or explanations. For example: seeds of water convolvulus; catfish; 1 week later; 2 weeks later, etc. It looks like you did not add water at all during the whole planting period? How long was that? I assume this variation of aquaponics works only for plants that like having their roots submerged in the early stages. Like rice? What else? Since I’m a backyard gardener, I’d plant a variety of vegetables rather than just one type. So it would nice to know what else would work.

Muito bom mesmo!! Abraço aqui do Brasil 👍

♡♡♡♡ beautiful fish, phenomenal how you're all repurposing the bottles.thx for caring & sharing♥️💯🎣🐟

Bonita idea gracias por compartir que Dios lo bendiga y lo guarde

Nicely done. Try to use a filter or an algae eater so you won't have to change the water often. If you use the Algae eater then make sure to get one that can survive under the same pH as your plant.

Gratulation big fish types. Be proud on them, fish feeding is good sometimes. Gratulation 👍

The technology of empty plastic bottles, Plants and fishes. Amazing agriculture techniques. 😃😁👍🔥🔥🇻🇺🇻🇺🇻🇺

Looking for ideas for our family farm. Thanks for this ingenuity.

This was so interesting. Thank you. You have made me interested to find out more.

gostei da ideia parabens !!!

This is how we ease hunger. If you don’t want the fish, just the water lettuce will help stretch budgets. Super cheap, diy.

Good job and Great content

I love the work and the method of making the grow pond. I may well use it soon.
