Yep, no clue who the Mom or Dad are. I guess I will try to separate them, but I don't have any of the gear set up!

Ohh missed the picture of the lettuce! Looks great, but I get nervous every time I see the wood across there. I have a wooden support for my header tank which spans over my fish tank, so worried about possible leaching, yet I don't have an alternative design at the moment.

I don't know. Mine is also untreated yet I do fret a bit. I figure there is no real way of knowing whats in the wood, yet I have done nothing to fix my system. Murphy's Law?

No worries for untreated lumber, Dave.

What do you mean you don't have tanks set up?!?!? You knew this was coming! And what did I tell you when you were over here? Separate them about the end of March!! Sheesh! ;)

(They did get it on rather quickly, didn't they?! Wait 'til I get in to my tank for TSD tomorrow. I'll probably find fry, too. By my estimates, they were hatched about Christmas. That makes them a bare 3 months old. :roll: )

Babies having babies hahahaha

I have Dad's old 30 gallon tank in the garage still, and the 10 gallon, and one filter unit and I could take one of the heaters out. I had been waiting to get another shelving unit and put the extra tanks on it; guess I will cannibalize one of the ones we already have!

I met another local from the barrelponics mailing list today. She said she would be interested in the fish I have to cull.

BTW Janet, she lives in York. I suggested she check out this forum, and sent links of my two systems. It would be great to have more PA Aquaponicians!
