Sharing Aquaponics is a treasure given for a lifetime.

  The children race and giggle outdoors, and come inside for a meal.  They have every reason to truly give thanks for what they have set before them.  Normal children in every way.  They run, they play, they study, and sing and laugh.  Life was not so happy for most of these children, but now they have a chance for a good life ahead of them.  Many children in Honduras cannot say this.

Aloha Converse,
My android app makes it a bit scketchy to navigate this site, even though I am using the mobile app right now. I can't seem to reply directly to your comments on my post about worm tea and it takes a lot to write & edit a post.
Just wanted to say, I am completely learning on the fly and appreciate the more professional and scientific info you provided on worm tea and abstract. I sometimes try to research other sites while posting to make sure I'm not too far off, but again using my mobile limits that compared to if I was on my computer, which seems rarely now.
The Eathan group seems to be an alright group, I just know what I read on their site, but I understand with the internet and especially aquaponics your being careful about associating or signing up to sites.
In my quest to learn and share info, I sort of take that chance and let the chips fall where they may. Backyard aquaponics versus if I was doing commercial, sort allows me that leeway.
I would like to read more on your post and share your last post with the other forums if you don't have any objections. Generally the forums I am on are the University of Hawaii's ATOLL site, AquaponicsHub, this one, Backyard Aquaponics and Earthan as far as aquaponics sites go. Beyond that my facebook friends. Take care. Gonna get my coffee. You know when aquaponics post get in the way of the first cup of coffee in the morning, your addicted.

Hi Converse.  If you go into the page of the person you want to send a private message to (just click on their image or search for them under Members) you will see a link to Send a Message with an envelope next to it in the left column under "add as friend".  You used to need to be "friends" with the person before you could PM them, but I'm not sure that is still in place.
