Now that I have things worked out with my sump, I like the way it works, automatic seperation.
I have added azolla and duckweed to the sump tank as well as premium fish food, tilapia powerstart fingerling crumble. The azolla and duckweed float while the powerstart sinks.

Well, unfortunately we cannot sell our fish yet. We have a whole lot of babies, but are lacking a whole bunch of permits! We are working on them and will keep all of you posted. We have received way more requests for tilapia than I expected to! As soon as we become legal, I'll let y'all know! Thanks!

Spring has sprung and my breeding colonies are cranking up. I have 4 moms with eggs in the last 2 days. I added a new male to one of my colonies of 4 females and within a few hours two of them had spawned! That boy is going to be a very good breeder!
Let them search for more grow out space begin!
