I could see an enterprising survivor community doing this for added protein in their diet.

I agree. This idea has been proposed on several of the "prepper" sites I have looked at. The idea is plants above the fish pond. It is supposed to work like this.
Water in pool has the fish.
Fish excrement/water is pumped up to the plants as fertilizer.
Plants filter the water.
Leftover water resupplies the pond.
Fish are fed from what ever grows.
It is supposed to be a relatively closed system. Once in place, let nature takes its' course.
I am NOT an expert in these things. But on the surface (pardon the pun) it seems like it just MIGHT work. Combination of hydroponics with fish farming.
