Tilapia Fingerlings In SW Washington and NW Oregon Area?

Still desperately looking for a supply of Tilapia fingerlings (or fry) in my area.  Anybody know of any? Thanks so much!

I will be looking for some soon also. I just saw a link to fishyfarm.com i believe. It looks lke they are located in Hillsboro. says 1$ each for small ones, but I haven't called them yet.

 

I am in Beaverton and about 1 month old on my system now.

The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife has a list of licensed operators who have fish for sale:

Fishy Farm (mentioned by Matt, also on the list) looks like a good place to get Tilapia. I'm still waiting for them to get their new shop up and running and stocking catfish (tastier than Tilapia, IMO).

Thank you Jake!!

I know I'm new to this forum, but I just received my order of Tilapia from this ebay seller.  http://www.ebay.com/sch/draxxes.california/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=...

I got the amount and the fish appeared to be in excellent shape and good quality.  Just tossing this out there, and I'm not affiliated with this person, just offering my two cents. 

Thanks!  I didn't even think of checking Ebay!

Thank you Michael! I will keep this handy.  Still struggling with a way to heat my tank reliably enough in the winter. I am excited to learn about The Farming Fish! Thanks again.

I have talipia now. I am setting up a breeding tank.  I hope to be able to sell small ones for people in the area within 6 months, but I am sure I'll have some issues and it will take longer for some unknown reason. I went to the Oregon fish and game wildlife website and searched for people on there.  I did not choose to be listed yet because I am not ready to sell.  I am in the Beaverton area by the way.....
