Comment by Tripp Exum on April 8, 2013 at 5:43am: Im just starting in Aquaponics and wanted to know if there were any in the Charleston Area that I could come and check out. I havent built anything yet but plan to start in the next week or two. I kind of want to see one in action to understand it more. Any tips for a newbie would be appreciated greatly.

Comment by Wendell Ford on April 7, 2013 at 6:19pm: Just finished my layout of the DWR portion of my system. Thanks to Shain for his lettuce seedlings. It's getting warm enough the spinach and peppers I planted are starting to poke thru.

Comment by Tracy Deaton on April 3, 2013 at 7:05pm: Yes Wendell I'm interested in 50. We will talk before then.
Thanks....

Comment by Wendell Ford on April 3, 2013 at 5:02pm: I got in touch with the breeder in Orangeburg. His price is $1.25 for 2-4" fingerlings. He will work out a discount for quantity and possible to meet him closer than Orangeburg to pick up fish. Let me know if you want any I was thinking about going on 4.13 or 4.20 to get me a 100 fish.

Comment by Wendell Ford on March 26, 2013 at 6:11pm: I have a phone number from a guy in Orangeburg. I called but had to leave message. Still waiting to hear back. There is a store in Ashville but I was wanting someplace closer. I'm sure there are several who want fish we could probably pool our money and buy them on quantity discount. I would take some lettuce seedlings off you. Shoot me a private message or call me and I will come pick up.

Comment by Shain Davis on March 26, 2013 at 4:54pm: I was excited to come out; but we had made plans to go out of town last weekend. I have a surplus of lettuce seedlings if you need some. Where do you plan on getting the tilapia from?
