 Cost Benefit Analysis of Aquaponic Systems
Some of the most common questions we are asked about aquaponics are "How cost effective is it?" and "How long will it take to pay off a system?"
Personally we have always felt that aquaponics pays for itself very quickly, but an independent review is far more useful to people rather than our own calculations.

 A place to share experiences
In 2005 and early 2006 hobby aquaponics was still pretty rare, especialy within Australia and there were a lot of enquiries from people asking questions about the specifics of aquaponics. Rather than responding directly to individual enquiries, I had begun posting enquiries to an online discussion forum at www.aquaponics.com, after posting the enquiry I'd respond publically there so that in future similar enquiries could be forwarded directly to the online information.
