Course: Aquaponics System Engineering and Construction (German)

Optionally on site or online


This course is held on-site and online in German


The course takes place from the 24.-25.10.2026 from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM.


This practical intensive course is designed for anyone wishing to acquire a deep technical understanding of the construction and reliable setup of an aquaponics system. You will learn how to size a system properly from scratch, balance it hydraulically, and implement it either yourself or professionally using the right components.

If you already operate a system, the knowledge provided will enable you to technically evaluate and understand your system in detail, as well as optimize and improve it effectively.


What You Will Learn in This Course

  • Fundamentals: Understanding biochemical processes (nitrogen cycle, nutrient dynamics) and the basic operating principles of aquaponics.

  • System Planning: Definition of framework conditions, design of the water circuit, design options, and the exact matching of fish stocking and plant density.

  • System Components & Hydraulics: Implementation options and technical sizing of fish tanks, filtration systems (solids and biofilters), pumping circuits, aeration, plant growing systems, and emergency backup systems for reliability.

  • Practical System Construction: Specific tips and tricks for tank bulkheads, solids lifting outlets (SLO), swirl and radial flow filters, biofilters, airlifts, media beds, floating rafts (DWC), and grow towers.

  • Practical Examples: Illustrative case studies and proven solutions from real-world aquaponics projects to avoid common design mistakes.


Your Benefits

You will gain solid know-how and the technical expertise required to professionally plan and hydraulically balance your own aquaponics systems, ensuring efficient, fail-safe, and long-term operation.

You will be fully equipped to understand, evaluate, adapt, and independently expand complex, large-scale system implementations down to the technical details.
