KIT FOR ASSEMBLING AN AQUARIUM AQUAPONIC ASSEMBLY AND AQUARIUM AQUAPONIC ASSEMBLIES THEREOF

摘要

A kit for an aquarium aquaponic assembly is disclosed. The kit comprises generally an aquarium module, a garden module, a reservoir module, drain conduits fluidly connecting the modules and a pump. The reservoir module has a top opening adapted to receive and maintained both the aquarium module and at least one garden module. Each garden module supports terrestrial plants and is located directly adjacent to one side of the aquarium module and located below a predetermined operating water level of the aquarium module. The aquarium module comprises a transparent tank adapted to be partially supported by the reservoir module. The system is designed such that the waste water from the aquarium module flows to the garden module for irrigating and feeding the plants. The waste water flowing from the garden module is filtered and directed to the reservoir module then pumped back to the aquarium module.

主权项

1) An kit for assembling an aquarium aquaponic assembly, the kit comprising:
a reservoir module configured to receive water and having side walls extending from a bottom wall, the side walls having top ends defining a top opening; an aquarium module comprising a transparent tank adapted to hold water for housing aquatic species; the transparent tank being supported by the reservoir module and having a bottom wall configured to engage, at least partially, the top opening of the reservoir module and be maintained by the top opening; at least one garden module, each garden module being adapted for supporting a plant bed for growing terrestrial plant species, the garden module being also supported by the reservoir module and having a bottom wall configured to engage and be maintained by top opening of the reservoir module; a first drain conduit configured to fluidly connecting a top section of the transparent tank of the aquarium module to the garden module; a second drain conduit configured to fluidly connecting the garden module to the reservoir module; and a pump located into the reservoir module to pump water back to the aquarium module via a third drain conduit configured to fluidly connecting the reservoir module to the aquarium module; wherein: the aquarium module, the garden module, the reservoir module, the first, second and third drain conduits and the pump form a water circulation loop; each garden module is located directly adjacent to one side of the aquarium module in a side-by-side configuration, the bottom wall of each garden module being located below an operating water level of the aquarium module such as to receive water therefrom by gravity; and the bottom wall of each garden module and the bottom wall of the aquarium module are located in a same plan when engaging the top opening of the reservoir module.
