A Community and Forum For Aquaponic Gardeners

saltwater aquaponics

I plan to develop commercial saltwater auqaponics system in nj, which I can grow shrimp, I will use seaweeds for removing nitriate.
As 90% shrimp in USA market is imported mainly from Southasia, we often see the report from FDA that these shrimps contain antibiotics and other chemical. There will be good market if I can farm shrimp raised in USA with zero water exchange, no any chemical.

Will be glad to discuss all details with you if you are interested in.

Did you do this? How'd it work out for you?
I was wondering about a backyard shrimp system. Like just big enough so they won't kill each other. A hobby tank to supply a couple of family shrimp boils a year.

Interested in how your are going to move the saltwater through the system? If you put it won't that be a problem with pumps being exposed to saltwater causing corrosion?
