Got Questions?
we've got answers

Where can I find information on running my system?

The Toteponics Build Instructions include a chapter on starting and maintaining your operational aquaponics system. You can also access our free ebook on this site. We also offer comprehensive high-level trainings to take your knowledge to the next level.

Do the Toteponics Build Instructions come as a physical book?

No, the Toteponics Build Instructions only come as a digital download in pdf format. We wanted to keep prices as low as possible so that Aquaponics can be accessible to as many people as possible. If you would like a planset in a physical format, we suggest looking at our INDY 23 Plan Set. 

I have no building experience. Will I be able to do this?

Hundreds of people around the world have successfully built this system using the Toteponics Build Instructions. 

Even if you have only basic skills, you will be able to build the Toteponics system by carefully following the instructions.  

The construction uses mostly commonly-available materials, so you don't need a specialist supplier.

How much space does the Toteponics system need?

You will need approximately 2.4m x 2.4m (8' x 8') of space to install the Toteponics system. This will allow room for access to all parts of your system, to be able to walk around and work around the system easily.

What tools and equipment will I need?

Basic hand tools are needed to complete the Toteponics system as per the Build Instructions. These include items such as a saw, spirit-level, electric drill, hammer, and other basic tools that are stocked at any local hardware store. No specialty equipment is needed.

How do I know what materials I will need to build the Toteponics System?

The Toteponics Build Instructions include a detailed parts list outlining the exact quantity and type of materials you will need to complete construction of your system. All of these items can be found in your local Home Depot (or simialr) hardware store.

Does the Toteponics System need to be inside a greenhouse? 

No a greenhouse is not necessary but it is advisable as depending on the climate this can extend the growing season, and protect your crop and fish from storms and/or pests. 

I live in a cold climate, will the Toteponics System work for me?

Yes, the Toteponics System will work in cold and hot climates alike. In cold climates it is worthwhile to keep your system inside a greenhouse to extend your growing season. In colder climates thought must be given to heating the fish water during winter. You can learn these cold-weather strategies in our courses and reference materials. 

What if I need even more growing area than the Toteponics System offers? 

If you need more growing space than the Toteponics System offers, we recommend upgrading to our INDY 23 or INDY 11.5 systems. 

Who is the Toteponics Build Instructions designed for? 

The Toteponics Build Instructions are designed for those on a tight budget, or those with limited space who are just starting in out in aquaponics and want an easy surefire way to get started.
