Wow...nicely done OP.
Some very interesting ideas, like insulating below the greenhouse, insulation of greenhouse via air cushion. Those are actually very useful tips, as mine would have to survive in European continental winter (Slovakia). Self-sufficieny is where I want to be, so I'm going towards building Aquaponics system myself, so far just collecting information.
Thank you for posting this, very inspirational material. hf

Thanks :)

The common carp would do extremely well in one of these systems, plus they're way more cold hardy than any tilapia. Carp are even revered as a food fish over there, from what I understand.

There are lots of fun and interesting possibilities, have fun exploring them!

Hmm...I haven't thought about Carp (and yes, it is indeed considered a food fish here, it used be a special Xmas meal), i thought I'd start with Trout. Trout has a high amount of omega-3, Carp is quite low in comparison (as is Tilapia).
Idealy I would use a fish which can handle temperature extremes as you can have both harsh winters and very hot summers in these parts. Will have to do a bit of research regarding this....but i'll look into carp as well.
