No wonder #eels are struggling! Study on impact of #climatechange shows: on top of shifting ocean currents, glass eels are affected by rising temperatures and acidity. The effect on migration and survival is compounded by other man-made challenges once elvers reach fresh water.

Experimenting with IBC aquaponics – this is our smallest system, built from intermediate bulk containers. We reconfigured the fish tank for easier solid waste removal 🙃. Our littlest #eels are moving in soon and then we can put… bristolfish.org/2018/11/21/e…

Our Modular Aquaponics project has been featured by the @UKGBC, as an innovative example of how to adapt buildings to a changing climate! @FishBristol @LettUsGrow buff.ly/2EmjZpY

As water supplies become less reliable, #innovation in water usage is needed. @FlanLawArch have created a concept to grow plants and farm fish utilising the excess heat of south-facing buildings! Find out about UKGBC's Climate Resilience work here: ow.ly/nzZo30mw346

The Modular Aquaponics system answers the question of how food can be sustainably grown, with minimum use of land, close to its place of consumption, with a negative whole life #carbonfootprint, whilst enhancing biodiversity. buff.ly/2EmjZpY @FishBristol @LettUsGrow

Sneaked a moment in between farm jobs to appreciate the leaf shapes in our grow beds. Such diversity! Hard to believe these four all belong to the same species of plant (Brassica rapa). LRTB: purple frills, choi sum (I think?), mispoona, mizuna. #aquaponift.tt/2ybVMwp

Perks of being a farmer: access to beautiful, ultra-fresh veg. Grown with #eels! No fertilizer, no pesticides. Today we have: watercress, pak choi, lettuce, purple frills and mispoona. Which is your favourite? #aquaponics #bristolbristolfish.org/2018/10/03/p…

Spiders absolutely love it on our farm. This one is @silverandfire ‘s but I saw 2 of the same type last week. I think this type is making its way up from more southern Europe on this exceptionally warm year! #spider bristolfish.org/2018/08/28/s…
