Luis, en el Incopesca me recomendaron a un tipo que vende pero en Guápiles. Nada más. Pero pueden llamar a ver si les va mejor. Yo por mi parte voy a llamar a Walter Cascante.

A mi me contaron que podes llamar al Incopesca al 2763-3293 y te pueden ayudar con la compra de Alevines, por cierto  que son super machos???

Thanks for the info Roger!

Roxana, ¿cómo hacemos para ver las fotos?

I just called Mr. Walter Cascante from http://ecotilapia.com. They have super machos at 40 colones each, from 1.5 grams to 2 grams each. Minimum order is 500 (20,000 colones). They are located in San Ramon. There will be a cost for delivery if around San Jose, but if you are willing to wait until somebody has to go in town anyway, there would not charge you for the freight. That could take a while! Make arrangements with Walter. His cellular is: 8718-1719. Muy simpatico Walter!  Gracias para su ayuda! See site for more info about "Super Macho"! They sell also kois!

hola puse en FB un album con la evolucion de nuestro proyecto de aquaponia, lo llame proyecto de aquaponia casero.

ayer pusimos a funcionar el agua que va de la tanqueta de la tilapia a los maceteros, esto es por gravedad, solo lleno 4 maceteros (son 8) y los sifones funcionaron pero aparentemet tenian una fuga asi que Fred usara silicon ya que necesitamos que se produzca el vacio

Hola Roxana, qué dicha que ya van caminando pero cómo cuesta, ¿verdad?.

Para Luis también, se consiguen unos adaptadores en un lugar en La Garita que se llama KAF Internacional; está como a 500m al este del ZooAve. Son "bridas" con empaque y rosca a ambos lados para pasar un tanque. Lo malo es que el más pequeño es de 1-1/2".

Roxana, ¿adónde van a conseguir la tilapia?

Hola Luis, dice mi esposo y como mencionó Farmer Brown que es una parte macho y otra hembra y mi esposo  lo compro en una ferreteria aqui en Atenas

Comment by Roxana González on May 29, 2012 at 3:08pm
