Bioponica Incubator

Raising Fish Food from Waste. Algae, Duckweed, Worm Teas.
Interesting idea from: www.bioponica.org
   This is our bioponic solution to hydroponic fertilizers and gmo aquaponic fish foods. Why buy when it is possible to become entirely food self sufficient by cyclling nutrients? Fish prefer natural pond and streams for the diversity of food. It makes them healthier and makes people who eat fish happier. Plus there is no accumulation of PCB's and other toxins that persist and bioaccumulate in fish when fed fish meal. Ever eat an organic fish? Not likely. Wild caught may have a better diet but considering the condition of the worlds waterways, they're not organic. Here's how to raise an organic fish. Same goes for plant fertility. Worm teas, algae, decomposed bacteria and protozoans all contribute to plant fertility. This is why river deltas are the most fertile farm regions of the world. Biomimickry with systems like this is how we can get back to eating healthy foods.

Man vs. Wild - Eating Giant Larva

The larva looks juicy and squirts out a torrent of juices when it's crushed between the man's mandibles. The third larva that he eats would probably fit into the length of a hot dog bun. The ejection of material that spews out is probably the larva's entire digestive system.
