Product Concept · Prototype Stage
Universal Grow Bed
A telescopic grow bed system that adjusts to fit various fish tank sizes — transforming any aquarium into a self-contained aquaponic system with minimal setup.
Seeking Funding for Production
Functional prototypes built and field-tested. Ready for mechanical refinement, tooling investment, and production setup.
Product Vision
One Grow Bed, Any Tank Size
The Universal Grow Bed solves a major problem in aquaponics — most systems require custom-built components that don't fit standard aquarium sizes. This telescopic design expands and contracts to fit a wide range of fish tanks, from small 50L setups to larger 200L+ systems.
The adjustable frame sits securely on the rim of the fish tank, with built-in overflow protection and grow media containment. Users can convert their existing aquarium into a productive aquaponic system in minutes without custom fabrication.
This product opens aquaponics to the mainstream aquarium market — millions of existing fish keepers who want to add plant filtration and food production without buying an entirely new system.
Key Features
- Telescopic frame adjusts from 40cm to 100cm+ width
- Sits securely on standard aquarium rim designs
- Integrated overflow drain prevents tank flooding
- Food-safe grow media containment liner
- No tools required — simple clip-and-lock assembly
- Compatible with existing aquarium pumps
Next Steps Required
- Mechanical engineering refinement for telescopic mechanism
- Tooling for injection-moulded frame components
- Load testing and structural validation
- Food safety certification for grow media contact
- Partnership with aquarium retailers for distribution
