Fish are most comfortable in large tanks, so estimate at least 1 800-gallon tank for a profitable aquaponics operation. step 2: add grow beds in a ratio of 1:1 start with a grow bed ratio of 1:1, that is 800 square feet of grow beds for an 800-gallon fish tank.. A two, deep-media grow bed system can support about 40 pounds of fish with our current design of ample fish tank and grow bed aeration, and works out to about 3.3 gallons of bio-filter grow bed media (hydroton) per pound of fish..

"a ratio of 1:1 is 800 square feet of grow beds for an 800-gallon fish tank. as more fish added, increase the grow bed square footage to as high as 4:1. an 800-gallon fish tank can support 3,200 square feet of grow beds ".. You ask a question that has no answer because there is no ratio between the size of the fish tank and the grow bed. ande provides links and you complain they are too scientific. the information in ande's links is the same info anyone else on this site should give.. 4) determining the ratio of grow bed to fish tank as a basic rule of thumb, you should start with a 1:1 ratio of grow bed volume to fish tank volume. once your system starts to mature within 4-6 months, you can increase it to 2:1 if you really want to..
