Green Acre Aquaponics is in Brooksville. http://www.greenacreaquaponics.com/ Girls there have quite an operation. Hit their website for tour info. Free tour during the annual "Tour deTanks". That’s when I went up. I studied and read everything I could for about 6 months and then drew out the plans and built my system in about a week using IBC containers. I have two media beds and one floating raft bed. I'm going to add more over the next year. 2 Media beds and a bucket system. Then I need to build another greenhouse. This one will be 10x20 and sit north of the current one. Check out my facebook for pics (russel.workman) I'm am now an AQ addict. We should start a program for that or something, LOL.
