Hmmm...I think the best thing to do would be to fill out the registration form, but don't go through PayPal. Then send a check to me at The Aquaponic Source at the address on the Contact Us tab on the Association website. I'll get you set up. Looking forward to meeting you!

yes!!! Most of what we have learned has been thru his utube videos. We recently purchased DIY Aquaponics, And actually came all the way from Australia, because at the time we couldn't find it here in the US. Later found 2 places that are authorized to sell his DVD's

I do believe they actually have Murray coming in person. I hope, I'm looking forward to meeting him in person myself.
