Hello all. I am new to aquaponics but not to fish keeping in general. I have kept many saltwater varieties as well as octopuses cuttlefish etc. These were all pets mind you none were food sources so I am sorta switching gears so to speak and ready to jump right in. I just wanted to say hi and I hope to learn a lot from you all. Thanks for having me. |

Well I was wanting to try my hand at raising some form of tilapia and growing the types of herbs my husband likes to cook with the most. I wanted to start out small and low cost since I have no idea if we will follow through with it. If its to time consuming or we cant get it going with limited power then it will be difficult for us to maintain long term. At this point I am simply trying to find the largest system I can reasonably afford with both room and cost and also keep it small enough so that if change my mind and decide its not for us its not so ouchie. In Texas the only tilapia you can raise with out a permit is Mozambique so I think for starters I will go with them just to keep the costs down. |

Have you had a chance to down load the "IBC of aquaponics" from the home page? You can download it for free and its full of useful information and a heap of cheap simple set ups that members have created for little cost. Good luck and ask all the questions you like
