An aquaponics and greenhouse system, includes a solar greenhouse insulated on north, east and west sides and with glazing on a south side at an angle to maximize winter sunlight, and housing a fish tank, grow beds, and a hard filter. The grow beds and hard filter include geyser pumps in the fish tank powered by air pumps that pump water from the fish tank to the grow bed or hard filter and aerate fish tank water. The hard filter includes algae layer with an air stone powered by an air pump underneath to aerate the algae. Grow beds on the north side have a barrier layer over media, and with a mushroom bulk substrate layer disposed thereover. The air intake of the air pump of the hard filter or the air stone extract CO2 from the mushroom bulk substrate and pump the extracted CO2 to the algae layer.

1. An aquaponics, and greenhouse system comprising: a solar greenhouse insulated on north, east and west sides and with glazing on a south side at an angle to maximize winter sunlight, and housing:a fish tank housed within the solar greenhouse;a plurality of grow beds coupled to the fish tank and also housed within the solar greenhouse, wherein each one of the plurality of grow beds is coupled to a respective fish tank geyser pump internal to the fish tank, andthe fish tank geyser pumps are powered by an external air pump to pump water from the fish tank to the grow bed and aerate water of the fish tank; anda hard filter coupled to the fish tank and having a hard filter geyser pump internal to the fish tank and powered by an external air pump to pump water from the fish tank to the hard filter to aerate and filter water of the fish tank, wherein the hard filter includes algae layer on an upper portion thereof with an air stone powered by an external air pump underneath the algae layer to aerate the algae,one or more of the grow beds are disposed on the north side of the greenhouse and are configured with a barrier layer over media, and with a mushroom bulk substrate layer disposed over the barrier layer, andone or more of an air intake of the external air pump of the hard filter geyser pump, and an air intake of the external air pump of the air stone is coupled to a top surface of the mushroom bulk substrate layer to extract CO2 from the mushroom bulk substrate and pump the extracted CO2 to the algae layer via one or more of the hard filter geyser pump, and the air stone. 2. The system of claim 1, further comprising: a water wall configured as a thermal battery disposed on the north side of the greenhouse, wherein the one or more grow beds that are disposed on the north side of the greenhouse are located behind the water wall. 3. The system of claim 1, further comprising: a secondary roof plenum disposed underneath the roof of the greenhouse and coupled to a rain gutter water reservoir on a north side thereof;a water filter coupled to the rain gutter water reservoir and configured to filter water from the rain gutter water reservoir; anda water pump coupled to the filter and configured to pump the filtered water to a mister spray head on an upper portion of the secondary roof plenum so that a water mist is sprayed and configured to condense within a channel formed by the roof of the greenhouse and the secondary roof plenum and return to the rain gutter water reservoir. 4. The system of claim 1, wherein the hard filter comprises: mechanical filtration, biological filtration, chemical filtration, and/or UV light sanitation; anda duckweed auto fish feeder having an output coupled to the fish tank and with duckweed growing on a top water surface of the hard filter provided to the fish tank. 5. The system of claim 1, further comprising: a black soldier fly (BSF) composting and auto fish feeder for converting organic matter into BSF larvae for fish feed, and comprising a BSF container having an internal ramp, and an external ramp, with the internal ramp disposed within the BSF container, and with the external ramp coupled to the internal ramp and disposed over the fish tank so that the BSF larvae can crawl up the internal ramp and drop off from the external ramp into the fish tank as the fish feed. 6. The system of claim 1, further comprising: a spectral analyzer based sensor having a gas probe disposed within the greenhouse to measure air parameters of the greenhouse including temperature, humidity, O2, and CO2 levels in the greenhouse, and a water probe disposed within the fish tank to measure water parameters of the fish tank water including dissolved oxygen, PH, nitrate, nitrite, ammonia, and electrical conductivity (EC) levels of the fish tank water, anda computer coupled to the spectral analyzer based sensor and configured to control one or more of the air and water parameters based on the measured air and water parameters levels. 7. The system of claim 1, wherein each of the grow beds includes a bell siphon external to the grow bed and configured to drain the water from the grow bed back into the fish tank and from the grow bed back into the respective hydroponic tank, and each bell siphon comprises a bell siphon housing with an open end and closed top, with the open end of the bell siphon housing coupled to a bottom of the grow bed, and a bell siphon standpipe extending within the bell siphon housing and coupled to the fish tank to drain the water from the grow bed back into the fish tank, and to the respective hydroponic tank via respective valves. 8. The system of claim 1, wherein each of the fish tank and hard filter geyser pumps comprises a geyser pump housing with an open bottom and closed top, with an air inlet provided in the geyser pump housing coupled to the air pump, and a geyser pump standpipe extending through the closed top of the geyser pump housing to an inside of the geyser pump housing and coupled to a top of the grow bed to pump and aerate the water from the fish tank to the top of the grow bed.
