Good day,
I picked interest on you after going through your short profile and demand it necessary to write you immediately. I have something very vital to disclose to you, but I found it difficult to express myself here, since it's a public site.Could you please get back to me on(gm3619124@gmail.com) for the full details.
Have a nice day.

Max,
I may be heading to Tahoe this weekend and I will attempt to catch some Kokanee. If I catch some I will attempt to bring them back to the Sacramento area alive.

Thanks for joining my group. It seems we are both in the same line of work. Cheers to you man. Please feel free to help, comment or ask any questions. I'll try to do what I can.
Respectfully,

Thanks Max. Just starting out with a small system in my lab at US Fish and Wildlife; Space is limited to about 4 ft by 8 feet so my plan is to build on top of a 4 x 8 Aquatic Ecosystems tank following Sylvia's book recommendations which I just ordered. Saw your bio and realize that you have lots of experience. Best wishes,
Fred :D
Hey Max, Great to read from you.

Wanting to talk with you soon.
Love to you and yours

If you would like to do a course in the bay area on the Peninsula, we would be glad to host you at San Mateo Ecovillage. I will post the pictures of our project being installed by Eric Maundu soon. Are you familiar with his work?
Welcome Max,
Thanks for joining the Aquaponic Gardening community! I hope you find it a fun place to explore aquaponics. There is a real blend of experienced and new aquapons in this community, so please don’t hesitate to get in there and start asking questions. Everyone is quite happy to help out new members – no question is too basic.
A great place to start is to read the “How to Use This Site” link on the upper right corner, “Start Here” section of the Main page. You might also find the “Aquaponic Gardening Rules of Thumb” guidelines helpful.
Please add a profile image, participate and check in with us every day! We are constantly posting news about aquaponics and the good food movement.
Thanks again for joining us, and I look forward to getting to know you.
Sylvia
