I am just in the midst of building a 22x48 greenhouse ... thinking of running 3 600 gallon tanks .. but haven't quite figured out volumes to growing medium yet ....
Hey when I track down some Tilapa ... just trying to get about 3 or 4 pairs and let them breed.... sure we can work something out if your interested..............
