Post subject:  Tilapia and food in southern Ontario
I’m looking to break down my system. Was roughly 300 gallons. I have maybe 20 tilapia in sizes ranging from 4 to 10 inches. I also have a ton of 3mm pellets. Anyone interested in some of this? Doesn’t have to take all.

The system is in my basement and I LOVED building and maintaining it. There were a couple minor issues such as ceiling height preventing larger plants. A small phosphate deficiency that I never got around to treating. My wife says there is a fishy odour to the house. I finally harvested some tilapia the other day. It was super awesome and they were DELICIOUS.

But it really comes down to I’m not enjoying it as much as I used to. It’s more of a chore to maintain now and I don’t want my hobbies to feel that way.
