The invention provides an ecological cycling freshwater aquaculture method. The method comprises: preparing a culture water source, supplying water to culture ponds, filtering water, and treating sewage. The plurality of culture ponds are arranged from left to right in sequence to form a culture pond group. The culture ponds in the culture pond group are connected in parallel, and form a recirculating aquaculture system with a filter tank, a treating pond, a settling pond, a biological package, an aeration tank, and a sterilization pond. Using the ecological cycling freshwater aquaculture method, water of the whole system forms virtuous cycle, and is suitable for growth of freshwater fishes and shrimps, and zero discharge of aquaculture wastewater is realized, and water resource is saved. The ecological cycling freshwater aquaculture method has obvious ecological environment benefits, and meets the sustainable development strategy of the country.
