Please tell us something else about yourself.: ok i have seen allmost every youtube vid there is that has the word aqua, tilapia, phonics and hydro. ( and the combinations of those words) just seems the majority start with "i just got started and dont know what im doing" or "i put a lot of $$$$ in this and i dont know why nothing is going the way i hoped" this site seems to have the correct mix of new ideas and expierienced people, the big for profit guys and the hobby types. i hope to both contribute and to learn as much as posible.

I have not visited the site for quite some time. I noticed you live here in Hollywood as I do. I studied the different options for creating a system but other factors in my life took priority. So I see by your photos that you have been through many permutations of aquaponic systems.Is it possible to meet and see what you are doing with this project. I have a good size back yard. I live in Oakridge off of griffin and 35th ave.

Regards,

Howard Waldman

I am sure we will post an event listing here soon and that would be a great place to list that others can catch a ride up with you. Thanks for the offer!

At 1:55am on August 27, 2011, Steve Wisecup said…: Thanks. My brother lives in Brooksville too. I checked @ walmart and they were sold out of the metal framed pools. Found a 12'x30" on ebay for $126. including shipping. What size is the one in your system? Do you have any pics of your growbeds? Thanks for all the info.

At 10:59am on August 26, 2011, Steve Wisecup said…: Good information, thanks. Do you have any idea how long would a swimming pool liner last if it's shaded from the sun? That was my concern about them. Thanks for the idea of searching for "totes" I had been searching for troughs, tanks, etc.

I am sure that you agree that Aquaponics is a fantastic way to grow both fish and vegetables naturally. Love to see some pictures of your system.

God bless :-)
