I've really been getting into gardening over the past year and have just started looking at aquaponics. I hope to one day build my own homestead, and want a big greenhouse with a central aquaponics "pond" for raising fish and shellfish.

After looking at lots of setups online, I see it's possible to grow lobsters, clams, oysters, tilapia and many many other critters using aquaponics. But I haven't stumbled across any that combine different species in the same water.

Question: Is it possible to have all four of those in the same tank? Or would they need to be separated? Any special considerations here?

Probably going to build a practice setup in my current house, just to get used to everything. Which critter is easiest to start with? Maybe the tilapia?

I'm probably going to build a practice setup in my current house, just to get used to everything. So if they are compatible, in which order should they be introduced to each other? Maybe the tilapia first?
