    We are just learning. There isn't much to see yet. One day, maybe next year we will have a fish fry!

    Hey Richard,

    I have large, medium and small B. Tilapia. Give me a call to let me know how many fingerling you need to start a bigger system. You can reach me at 813-838-6284. I have  2100 and 300 gal. tanks. Plus I have the 50 gal. tank full of fingerlings that are growing as I speak.  I also have snails that I am growing for restaurants-Escargot. Enjoy your new adventure in the realm of Aquaponics. It is interesting and fun.
