DIY Vertical Aquaponics on the patio.... but is it aquaponics?

DIY Vertical Aquaponics on the patio.... but is it aquaponics? | Wellington Aquaponics | Scoop.it

This is a very nice looking system that has been installed somewhere in Australia - but it does beg the question... "Is it Aquaponics?"  This system circulates the fish water through soil.... so the "ponics" part of aquaponics is... well... totally missing!  It is still a fantastic idea, but what do you think?  Is it aquaponics?

The Way of the Future: Aquaponics vs. Traditional Agriculture

The Way of the Future: Aquaponics vs. Traditional Agriculture | Wellington Aquaponics | Scoop.it
by Sylvia Bernstein. Since over half of humanity now lives in our cities, it is important that food-growing facilities be established where the people are, rather than trucking food in from distant locations.
Wellington Aquaponics's insight:

Wellington Secondary agrees with this sentiment but we are also trying to look at the fact that there is not enough flat land to feed 9 billion.  So we are going vertical.
