Yes aquaponics is a farming system which includes production of fish and growing plants particularly vegetables such as salads, water lettuce, tomatoes, water melon, tangos.
This system is very applicable in the area with a limited space.
Especially in urban areas
What you need is;
Fish (seed)
Facilities such as tank
Water (just to fill the tanks initially) because water will be recirculating between plants and fish tanks).
Also biofiter (you can just use two plastic tanks.) one could be settling tank and other filtering tank.
Also you need a motor to pull water.
