Backyard Aquaponics Courses
Everyone learns differently.
Some people want a complete blueprint they can follow step by step.
Others want to understand the principles well enough to design and build a system that suits their own home.
Neither approach is better.
They're simply different learning paths.
That's why every course at Easy Backyard Aquaponics has been designed around one simple idea:
Help ordinary people confidently grow real food at home.
Whether you're looking for detailed guidance or the knowledge to build something uniquely your own, you'll learn using the same practical teaching philosophy you've already experienced throughout this website.
Simple.
Practical.
Focused on understanding before complexity.
Every Course Follows the Easy Backyard Aquaponics Method
The courses may teach different skills, but they all follow the same philosophy.
We don't believe people need to memorise complicated formulas or copy someone else's system without understanding why it works.
Instead, we teach the principles first.
Then we show you how to apply those principles in practical ways.
That means you'll learn to:
Keep aquaponics simple.
Understand how the ecosystem works.
Grow real food your family will actually enjoy.
Build confidence one step at a time.
Choose solutions that suit your own home.
Whether you're following a complete blueprint or designing your own system, the goal is exactly the same.
Helping you become confident enough to enjoy growing your own food.
Which Learning Path Is Right For You?
Most people fit into one of two groups.
Read through the options below and choose the one that sounds most like you.
I Want to Build the System That's Right for Me
This course is for people who enjoy understanding how things work.
Instead of following one specific design, you'll learn the principles behind successful backyard aquaponics systems so you can confidently choose, design and build a system that suits your own space, climate and goals.
You'll explore different growing methods, compare layouts, understand filtration, plumbing, pumps, fish selection and much more.
Throughout the course you'll watch three different backyard aquaponics systems being built, allowing you to see how the same principles can be applied in different ways.
By the end, you won't simply know how to build one system.
You'll understand how to make informed decisions when building your own.

DIY enthusiasts.
People who enjoy learning how things work.
Those wanting flexibility in their design.
Anyone wanting knowledge that can be adapted to almost any backyard system.

From My 20 Years of Practical Aquaponics
Over the years I've learnt that successful backyard aquaponics isn't about building the biggest system.
It's about building the right system for your home.
That's the philosophy behind every lesson I teach.
My aim isn't simply to show you what I built.
It's to help you understand why it works, so you can confidently apply those same principles to your own backyard.
Twenty years of building, testing and refining simple backyard aquaponics systems.
