Volume 2x/hr. starting Eventually 1x/hr. 1,000 liter fish tank, pump=1-2,000l/hr Fish density is the stocking rate. What is critical carrying capacity? Total weight of fish stocked in a pond that can be supported without dying Optimum filtration is based on: No. fish Size Weight Feed consumption is most accurate What does a fuse and GFIC do?

Most hydroponic plants grow best at a ph of 5.8 to 6.2. The acceptable range for hydroponic systems is 5.5 to 6.5. The ph of a solution affects the solubility of nutrients, especially trace metals. Essential nutrients such as iron, manganese, copper, zinc and boron are less available to plants at a ph higher than 7.0, while the solubility of phosphorus, calcium, magnesium and molybdenum sharply decreases at a ph lower than 6.0. Compromise between nitrification and nutrient availability is reached in aquaponic systems by maintaining ph close to 7.0.
