Please tell us something else about yourself.
My wife Sarah and I started this system at our home in downtown Orlando where we are working to establish sustainable residential farming in urban areas. We learned basic aquaculture/aquaponics from the Morningstar fisherman of Dade City, Florida.
Thanks Robert...its just a small test system, 300 gallon tank, 50 tilapia, 32 cu ft media bed and 64 cu ft DWC trough plus red wiggler worms in the media and a greenhouse covering to keep out the rain this Summer. I like your pictures as well...where are you located?
Robert, I plan to be over in Orlando within the next two days and would like to drop by and take a look at your system and tilapia. Will it be possible to meet up? Thanks.
