This year, the students are becoming aquafarmers! Aquaponics is a system that uses fish waste to add nutrients to the plants. Over the last few weeks, we have been testing the water looking for nitrites and nitrates. The goal was to have very little, to zero nitrites, and less that 20 ppm nitrates. Once we reached the goal, the bio-filter was complete, and we added fish. The classes were so excited to see our ecosystem in action!
