Media-based aquaponics systems use substrates like gravel, expanded clay, or perlite to support plant roots while simultaneously filtering water in aquaculture systems. These systems rely on the symbiotic relationship between fish and plants, where fish waste provides essential nutrients for the plants, and the plants help filter and purify the water for the fish. The substrate acts as both a filter and a medium for beneficial bacteria, which help convert the fish waste into plant-usable nutrients. Media-based systems are widely favored for their versatility in plant types and relatively low maintenance. While they require regular monitoring of water quality and nutrient levels, they are highly efficient in terms of water usage, making them an environmentally sustainable method for food production.
