Embodiment Construction

[0034] The novel hydroponic system will be described below. While the invention has been described in terms of specific embodiments, it should be understood that the embodiments described herein are by way of example only and that the scope of the invention is not intended to be limited thereto.

[0035] see figure 1 , shows a functional diagram of an embodiment of an aquaponic system 100 in accordance with the principles of the present invention. The hydroponics system 100 generally includes an aquarium module (aquarium module) 15 , a vegetable garden module (garden module) 1 , and a water reservoir module (water reservoir module) 6 . It should be understood that some structures have been omitted for clarity (such as the support structure below the aquarium module).

[0036] These three modules are further fluidly connected to each other through various conduits (such as pipes) including the first drain pipe 13 between the aquarium module 15 and the vegetable garden module ...

Abstract

An aquaponic system generally comprises an aquarium module, a garden module and a reservoir module. The aquarium module is generally configured to be installed on a supporting structure (e.g. a cabinet). The garden module is generally configured to be installed on the supporting structure near the aquarium module, in front, beside or even all around it. The garden module is generally configured to support terrestrial and / or semi-aquatic plants. The reservoir module is typically installed inside the supporting structure with the utilities (e.g. pumps). The system is generally designed such that the waste water from the aquarium module flows to the garden module where it irrigates the plants and where it is at least partially filtered by plants which consume at least some of the waste products contained in the water.
