I deeply appreciate your open source philosophy of giving to others of your knowledge and experience. Thank You.
Its not helpful at all, but please continue what you are doing. You quite often deliver poignant articles just when I need them. Your writing style is concise and enjoyable to read. Can’t praise you highly enough basically.
Really appreciate and value your website and your articles Paul. Totally understand you’re a business first and foremost and need to make money to pay the bills like all of us, so I’m grateful for all the helpful info you give away free of charge, which you really do not have to do. I wish you all the best with your business
You really helped me fine tune my filtration plans. I had not considered a wicking bed for the effluients from the solids separator. I have always just taken and put it in a bucket and then dumped it in the garden. I also enjoyed finally getting some concrete numbers on the amount of feed a moving bed bio filter can digest. My design was a bit large for the system I am creating. You have saved me time and money. Thank you.
I am building a radial flow filter based on your design, and have modified my plans for an aquaponics system based on what I have read on your site. Also, I am including an earthan bed, which is inspired by what you have done. Thanks much!
There is are a lot of useless information on the internet about this subject ( like any subject on the net ) everybody want’s to skin the cat in they way and trying to invent the wheel. You, Paul, know what you are talking about. In South Africa this concept it is very new and building a system wrong is the difference between success ( not to loose money ) and failing ( loos everything). You have a great experience and if you like to guide me on this project I will be very thank full.
Saw the aquaponics idea recently at Sydney Easter Show. Started researching it your web site is fantastic. Currently making a IBC system with ideas from all over the net. Now thanks to your recent article with only 50 fish, was planning 100 but I now better understand what my 1000 litre system will grow.
I’m new to aquaponics , there’s a lot of useful information contained in the blogs and articles
Paul, Your easy to understand instructions, made us very excited about starting up aquaponics knowing we have a basic understanding. Can’t wait to do the one day course with you.
Quite simply you have given me a greater understanding of Aquaponics. But I am sure I still have much to learn. I have not started a system yet, but look forward to trying one soon… I watch other you tube vids and read other websites, but simply return to you because I believe you are 100% sincere with the information you give. You have helped me understand many things, and I thanyou.
It is most comforting to have access to someone as knowledgeable and down to earth as yourself Paul. Nothing comes close to being able to chat to someone interactively. You explain things in a way they make sense, even though the topic may be somewhat complex. You are open and willing to share your knowledge… your website is testament to this.
I think it’s simply amazing that you give away so much information based off of your experience. I consider you to be what we call in the south of the US “good people”. I think the same of anyone willing to share their knowledge with others so that they can do something or improve what they have and be better without expecting anything in return (except for a survey that is, LOL).
Explained more about aquaponics in scientific ways and in details more than any other site. You explained in simple and honest way not hiding pieces of important information like others do liked the diy solid filter and bio filter , very easy to build.
First off thank you very much. You have been inspirational on my plans for building my system and understanding the real world economics of going commercial.
You are the first one to explain scientifically aquaponics and as far as i know first one to explain in details commercial aquaponics , God pless you
The articles have a lot to absorb so they are re-read to make sure I get as much out of it as possible. The instructional videos are priceless. (This comes from a former TV production person and technical writer.)
I like the diversity in the various systems you have setup. It’s nice to know there is more than one way to grow a fish. The tech stuff is very welcome and having the various formulas on one web sight is extremely helpful. Thank you.
Really appreciated the time you spent going over our system & the information that you shared when you visited.. Thanks for the plans for the radial flow filter… Didn’t follow them to a “t” but they were very helpful..
Paul… I like what you do… you professionalism and pride in the systems you design and build or advise and help on. Your posts are informative and interesting. You are very generous with your knowledge and expertise. You passion and enthusiasm is inspirational. I would have no reservation in recommending you, your site , your blog, your systems… to anyone I knew… who was interested in aquaculture and aquaponics. You are a professional…. not a salesperson… and it shows!!!!
You DIY’s are excellent, and I have a growing interest in raising fish. Maybe some fish recipes to go with herbs that are growing in al that wonderful fish poop. LOL
I found the site clear and modern. My interest in aquaponics is to help some friends that I have in India set up a system to learn from, an enable them to go forward
The scientific numbers and tables you give are fantastic. Keep these coming! You also do an excellent job continuing communication when someone comments. This always impresses me, when I see a company not just presenting information, but creating dialogue and continued communication with consumers about the information after it was presented. IT shows appreciation and a real dedication to helping people learn.
I’ve just finished a smaller version of your radial flow filter. Gold. I don’t seem to have to filter much BS from your site like I do from forums. Videos speak a words. How much should I feed? Only your video made me understand.
Thought Paul was great when I meet him at the Hebden Fish Farm for the first time and have been closely following what he says since. Also purchase a few things of the internet and will continue to do so in the future. PS your fish food is half the price of what other people are charging.
Paul, Many thanks for the help and advice, and for supplying so many seals, grommets, taps, pumps etc at a very reasonable price. We are now well on our way to our first havest of barramundi. Kind Regards Jethro
I think that Earthan group is very helpful. My questions I had was answered and explained. So thank you
The quality, quantity & depth of your posts are 2nd to none. I also enjoy the variety of topics you cover. Aquaponics is not just about the fish or the plants, it is an ecosystem… and a diverse one that you cover very well.
I am pleased to have found your web sight. There is a lot of great information here for the DIY types. I have not had the time to go through much but I will spend a lot of time here. I would like to link you to our web sight as a DIY resource.
Advice without expectation is very rare in this day and age. When you offered to spend an hour on the phone, it was a very pleasant surprise, and clear proof that Earthan Group was exactly what i expected. Your assistance in doubling the efficiency of the aquaculture side of our aquaponic green house has taken our production and presentation to a professional level, and for that, we are greatly appreciative.
I found a lot of useful information. Say, all free calculators, gravity pipe size and flow rate, fish feeding reactions and amonia toxicity and especially data about biofilter efficiency dependig water temperature etc.
Every idea & modification suggested by Paul has been both productive & benificial
You have given us a lot of information of real value. A solid base from which to build upon as we build and develop our RAS and/or Aquaponic systems.
Your passage of information is fantastic (and you seem at the cutting edge of aquaponics).
Paul is full of Aquaculture energy and is a genuine person willing to assit. I have met him once on an Aquacuture Association Field Trip. Seems very genuine to me.
I think you guys are doing some real fantastic work – keep up the good work

I’ve really enjoyed your site and posts, it is very open source information which is refreshing. Also very competent and knowledgeable shows your experince and we really appreciate it.
Very refreshing site , a no BS site that is a credit to you ..rule number 1 in any succesful business ask your customers what they want ..they will tell u ..well done guys
I think you are doing a great job providing information to people interested in fish farming/aquaponics. I really enjoy reading about fish, aquaculture and aquaponics and regularly read your site and the aquaponics forums. I take my hat off to you for being able to put together as many interesting stories as you have so far. Well Done. Only stories I dont read are the insect ones as they dont interest me!!
You have made me envious. I don’t find it that simple but you make me try harder to get it right.
The information that you have provided on your Earthan Group Website has guided me in the way my system has evolved. I am a retiree who enjoys home aquaponics/aquaculture as a great hobby. The system is very stable and currently supports 30 Rainbow Trout, 60 Silver perch and 10 Murray Cod.
Through this site I have learnt most of what I know and carry out on my own DIY system. Also purchasing equipment that comes with sound advise, and at reasonable prices.
You are great. Like the way you freely give of your knowledge
I really enjoy that there are articles on a variety of subjects and find that reading your website encourages me to try new things with aquaponics.
I find you to be open and honest and your no nonsense approach is great
Your passion is infectious, and your experience allows people on every level to understand the processes involved.
Always interesting and thought provoking topics presented sensibly and at the perfect technical level.
I have learnt that filters are a must in aquaponics. I was able to build my own filters at a very cheap price. The videos and demonstrations were easy to follow. Your shop allowed me to purchase aquaponic equipment that I couldn’t find anywhere. Thanks for you help.
Very generous in the information given and an alternative point of view
The radial filter design with photos that you posted some time ago has been very helpful. I have built a couple and they work great. So simple and easy to clean. Saved me hours of work cleaning foam filters, which I have now done away with in my AP systems.
