<p>I ran across an aquaponics system manufacturer this weekend and can't get them off my mind. They're called <a target="_blank" href="http://www.fishyfarm.com">Fishy Farm</a> and they are out of Oregon. In particular, they have a picture on Facebook that got me excited about the possibilities of continuing my aquaponics efforts even though I have moved to Michigan. I am confident the 100 gallon system would work well in my basement, but a picture with snow in the background got me hoping that I might be able to keep an outside system going.</p>
<p>Does anyone here happen to have one of these systems? Their primary outdoor system seems to be 350 gallons.</p>

<p>Sahib has managed to pack in a lot into a little. Nestled behind a small strip mall in a bustling area of Winter Park near Orlando, Sahib has perfected combining different types of systems from DWC, to vertical, NFT, media and even some wick systems. Sahib cultivates catfish, Koi and Tilapia to support his multiple growing systems and research efforts.</p>

<p>At Morningstar Fishermen, Hans Geissler was practicing aquaponics long before many even knew what it was. This research facility and mission home base has an incredible agenda of ending world hunger with aquaponics. Visit Hans and learn about their projects in Nicaraqua, Malawi and more.</p>

<p>This roof top greenhouse and aquaponic garden was the vision and creation of Florida citrus industy mogul Bert Roper. Located on top of The Garden Building in Winter Garden Florida, Green Sky is the first Certified Green building in the world with a commercial scale, aquaponic farm on the rooftop.</p>

<p>For those that think living in a neighborhood won’t allow for a sizable aquaponic system, they can’t miss Paul’s Place. Using a beautifully landscaped pond just beside his home, Paul feeds vertical stackers and over 90’ of raft trough. Paul is great example of being in a housing community and still having plenty of grow space.</p>
