I like that Dave!  How many gallon is that sump?

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.

Today, as I was cleaning one of my breeding colonies, using  a forceful spray into the sump, I noticed fingerlings. swimming at the bottom of the sump. I stopped and tossed in some feed.

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!
