System Uses
The 4-110 Family + Nelson and Pade, Inc.'s Clear Flow Aquaponic SystemsTM is great for home food production and big enough that you’ll likely have extra to share with friends or sell at a farmer’s market or roadside stand. It can also be used in an educational setting, in a school greenhouse or wet lab. With the same design and components of a large-scale raft system (only smaller), it is a great system to learn the concepts and daily operation of a raft aquaponic system. The individual filter tanks (clarifier, mineralization and degassing) demonstrate all of the scientific principles of aquaponics make operation easier and increase productivity.
The 4-110 system can also be used as a nursery for a larger system, such as the 4-800 or 6-1200.
