The Pond Report > DC Air Compressors, Solar Air Pumps, Battery 12V Compressors, 12V Pumps, Battery Powered Air Pumps It's not always possible to run some 14/3 gauge wire down from the nearest hydroelectric pole across a field into a valley and around a gully to reach a pond to power a pond aerator. A windmill is nice if you have wind but when that isn't the case the only option is to build a solar aerator. Often, as many of our friends know by looking on the Internet, a solar aeration system that has any sort of potential for long-lasting sustainabilty is going to cost upwards of $5000 and beyond. At that price I know a lot of pond owners who would rather blow bubbles into their pond through straws while canoeing to keep the fish alive and algae down. Typical applications include live fish transport on trucks or fishing boats; however, they can also be used in emergency or solar-powered situations. Running an air pump off a car battery is a much cheaper option and while I am not a solar aeration engineer I know that a cheap direct current air pump or diaphragm compressor can be bought for very cheap.

Friendly Aquaponics, Inc. | Organic Certification If you were asking yourself: “Is organic certification of aquaponics possible?” when you loaded this page, the answer is a resounding YES! My gorgeous wife Susanne got our farm’s aquaponics systems USDA Organically Certified in 2008. She was the first in the world to obtain this certification! (I get excited about her accomplishments, so please correct me if I’m wrong here, for we searched and searched, and found no others USDA certified before us). We don’t consider ourselves “the” experts on aquaponics, but we are the experts on organic certification of aquaponics. Also, our back Commercial Newsletter #10 has complete information (as of 5-10-2012) of all the organically certified aquaponics farms and their certifying agency that Susanne could locate. What does organic certification (hereafter referred to just as “certification” to save your time) mean for you and your farm? Why Is Certification Valuable To You? Defining “Organic” Precisely And Accurately: Fines Are NOT Fine!
