I just don't know why you all picked Fla. to have it Sylia you live in Colo. and I see you started Comm. Aquaponics and Colorado Aquapons.  I know Colorado is much nicer than Fla so why in the heck would you want to go there.  With me just starting a system of a lot of money yes I can't afford it and I guess It is also to far but why would I want to go to Fla. when Colorado has so much more to offer. If I started 2 groups in Colorado I would like to give the people of Colorado the 1st chance to have the 1st conference of Aquaponics in Colorado.  I hope that many other people feel the same way I do but I guess the survey is not of any importance or maybe you would of given it prior to setting it in stone.  I can't see why you would ask us to take a survey because I believe our option in Colorado doesn't matter since the dates are already booked and the key note speakers are already in place.  I would hope after I post this on Community Auqaponics you get the same response as I have posted.

Richard, you will always be a Colorado Aquapon in my mind!

sounds good. We are gone from May 16-19th, but other than that we would be happy to take on more fish. Looking forward to it.

Thanks Tawnya, we are trying to eat all the lettuce they have helped produce as fast as we can so I can tear it all down for the move. We want to get it down before June 1.  I will msg you or JD in the next week or so if that's ok?

Hey Richard-

Congratulations on your new place, very exciting. We've missed you around town, but I'm sure you have been keeping busy. We would be interested in your fish. Let us know what we can do to help.

Just bought the farm, well, it may be a farm in a few years. Right now its 10 acres with a home. The problem is it is in California and I don't think I can get my goldfish  from here to there alive. Looking for a new home for these three large (6-7 inch) goldies.  Please shoot me a msg if you could take these wiggly little ammonia makers.

Okay here is my idea. If anyone sees any problems I need to address, or has any suggestions, let me know. I'm thinking I could also put a float bed in the sump tank for some leafy greens chift%20pist%203.PNG chift%20pist%202.PNG

I recommend taking Colorado Aquaponics Hands On Workshop where I think they are planning on building a system like this.  Another great resource is Murray Hallam's new DIY Aquaponics video.
