<p>Thanks for the quick reply. I looked at trout also but if I am not mistaken it takes about 2 years to grow them out but I guess it is worth it if you can get a good price for them. Thanks<br></br> <br></br> <cite>Jonathan Kadish said:</cite></p>

<p>All my research points to a negative profit food for a pound of tilapia is about a dollar and you can buy tilapia wholesale at restaurant depot for 160 therefore its a wash.. There poop is valuable for plant production and you can enjoy the chemical free fishes on your own table.</p>
