Automatic Feeder
 App-Controlled Feeding: Set feeding times effortlessly using our intuitive mobile
app. Whether you're at home or away, you can ensure your fish are fed at the
perfect times, every time. Additionaly you can also set if how many fish in the tank
dispense of feeds.
 Visual Container Indicator: Our feeder comes equipped with a visual indicator to
keep you informed in the mobile app about the food level in the container. A quick
glance at the indicator will let you know if your fish food container is full or empty.

 Color Representation: We've made checking the food level even simpler with color-
coded indicators. A green icon signals that the container is full, while a red icon
alerts you in your mobile app when it's time for a refill.

Water temperature sensor


 Target Temperature Control: The Water Temperature Sensor allows you to set and
maintain the target temperature required for catfish health and growth. By
accurately measuring water temperature
 Heater Activation Instructions: Acting as a critical component of our automated
system, the Water Temperature Sensor provides instructions for activating the
Water Heater when necessary. If the sensor detects that the water temperature has
fallen below the desired threshold, it signals the Water Heater to engage and initiate
the heating process.

Water Heater
 Temperature Regulation: The Water Heater utilizes advanced heating technology to
raise the water temperature to the desired level indicated by the Water
Temperature Sensor. Its precise controls allow for accurate adjustments, ensuring
that your catfish are kept in a stable and comfortable environment.
 Seamless Integration: Designed to seamlessly integrate with the Water Temperature
Sensor, the Water Heater responds promptly to temperature fluctuations, providing
rapid heating when required.

Camera Modular
 Real-Time Surveillance: Keep a close eye on your catfish with live, high-definition
video streaming directly to your smartphone or tablet. Whether you're at home, at
work, or on the go, you can stay connected to your aquaponics system anytime,
anywhere.

Solar Powered
 Solar-Powered Operation: The heart of our Aquaphonics system lies in its solar
panel, which harnesses clean, renewable energy from the sun to power all aspects of
your aquaponics setup. Say goodbye to dependence on conventional electricity and
embrace a more sustainable way of farming.

Others

Filter
 Customized Filtration: Our filter chamber is divided into multiple compartments,
each tailored to accommodate a specific type of biofilter medium. From mechanical
filtration to biological and chemical filtration, each chamber plays a unique role in
purifying and detoxifying the water in your aquaponics system.
 Enhanced Water Quality: By harnessing the power of diverse biofilter media, our
system ensures comprehensive water treatment, effectively removing harmful
substances. Experience crystal-clear water and optimal conditions for your fish and
plants to thrive.

Water Pump
 Efficient Water Circulation: The Water Pump is specifically engineered to circulate
water efficiently throughout your aquaponics system. By maintaining a constant
flow, it ensures that nutrients are evenly distributed to your plants and oxygen is
delivered to your fish, promoting their overall well-being and growth.

 Oxygenation for Fish: Oxygen is essential for the health of your fish, and our water
pump delivers it directly to their habitat. By aerating the water as it circulates, the
pump helps maintain optimal oxygen levels, preventing stress and ensuring a
healthy environment for your aquatic companions.
 Nutrient Transport for Plants: Plants rely on a steady supply of nutrients to thrive,
and our water pump plays a crucial role in delivering these essential elements. As
water circulates through the system, it carries nutrients derived from fish waste to
the plant roots, fueling their growth and productivity.

Plants to grow lettuce


 Rapid Growth: Lettuce is renowned for its fast growth, and in the nutrient-rich
environment of aquaponics, it thrives even more. Experience the joy of watching
your lettuce sprout, grow, and mature at an astonishing rate, providing you with a
bountiful harvest in record time.
 Low Maintenance: Say goodbye to the hassle of high-maintenance plants. Lettuce is
incredibly low maintenance, making it the perfect choice for aquaponics enthusiasts
of all levels. With minimal care requirements, you can enjoy the beauty and bounty
of fresh lettuce without the stress of constant upkeep.
 Quick Harvest: Leaf lettuce varieties are particularly speedy growers, reaching
maturity in as little as 30 days. Plus, you don't have to wait for full maturity – you
can start harvesting leaves as soon as they reach the desired size, ensuring a steady
supply of fresh greens for your table.
