Building a low-cost rural pond filtration system by myself – looking for sustainable ideas and improvements 🌱🐟
I’m building this pond and filtration system by myself in a rural area in Brazil.
The goal is to create a low-cost, sustainable fish pond using natural filtration (plants + gravity flow + sediment chamber).
Right now it’s very simple and handmade, but I want to improve it and possibly turn it into a small sustainable production system.
I would really appreciate ideas about:
– Better biological filtration
– Water clarity improvement
– Aquaponics integration
– Shade structure design
– Long-term sustainability
I’m open to suggestions, design ideas, and even collaboration.
What would you improve in this system?
