RupertofOZ and mal5000,

Thanks for the replies and warm welcome.

I will keep you posted on the progress.


Richard

Welcome welcome
We love pictures and I know you have a great climate for this sort of thing. Looking forward to your progress, in the mean time, read read read and ask lots-o-questions. Hopefully you will get to benefit from many of our mistakes and have more chances to come up with new ones!!!!!!!!

TCLynx,

I must say that I have read many interesting threads written by intelligent members.


Richard

Here?????

Joke . Yes a wealth of information here.
Please ensure you have bikini clad Costa Rican models included in your pics

Chappo,

I will do my best. They prefer to be called Ticas and their favorite expression is "pura vida" With that, you can probably get a first date.


Richard

plane tickets are booked, hope there isn't too much swine flu there. Ticas ahoy

monya,

I may have some good suggestions for you.

By the way, nice website. Looks like your running a solid operation.

Hi Richard

any idea yet on how big a system or what you want it to be able to produce or how big an area you have to put it in ??

some many questions and not enough time to ask them all

and aseveryone says read and read ( i read nearly every night for 4 months )

and i created my basic system in an afternoon and have been playing with it ever since

and you get to a oint that if you dont have a system to play with you really dont learn to much until you do ( this is where the fun starts )

mal5000,

Thanks for the advice.

I am about to purchase about 20 acres. When that happens, I will make arrangements to move forward and will keep you posted with any questions that may arise.



Richard

20 acres ,, sounds good ,, but a lot of work.
I have 5 acres in Thailand ,, that is more than enough ..... actually toooo much.

You really need to think about a lot more than just aquaponics

Do some reading on " Lowline cattle" , Japanese quail . Moringa tree .....
That will give you a lot to think about.


20 acres , a big pool and many many Costa Rican senioritas:)

I was also thinking about a par 3 chip and putt.

What do you think?
