I live in Southern California half the time and the other half is in the Philippines. l would like to learn more about aquaponics so that I can apply some of the knowlege as part of the livelyhood in my village. The people there at Coron Island are mainly fisherman, but the sea is all fished out. I want to introduce an alternative method of the way to manage resoure farm land and the sea. I own 2 islands, a beach property 10 acre and 12 acre farm, the crops on the are bananas and pineapple.

Hey Antonio, thanks for responding! seems my fish aren't that happy (every few days one dies) though my plants are doing great. when are you finished with your pond and what do you plan to put in it? tilapia as well? Keep me posted when you're closer to being done, I'd love to see how you set up your system. I only have a 150 gallon tank in a greenhouse in my back yard with one grow bed doing well and two more just starting.
Hey Antonio, I found you on the member map. not a lot of members in our area. what kind of system have you set up? I've just assembled one with a 150 gallon fish tank with 3 grow beds using ebb and flow, but it doesn't really seem to be working all that well yet.
