naffonso · Postby **naffonso** » August 25th, 2009, 1:04 pm

yeah you just have to place them on a piece of live rock and feed them small pieces of raw shrimp(once every 2 days) if you dont have a clown fish.

I am interested in purchasing mechanical and biological filters for a half tank to rear tilapia.

Any knows where I can purchase a system. Or anyone has design to make this system home

Razkal · Postby **Razkal** » August 29th, 2009, 11:14 am

^half tank? tilapia? they breed pretty quickly, eat almost anything offered to them and grow at a substantial rate compared to regular hobby fishes....half tank imo, is NOT the best bet...

btw, what's the intention for this venture? i did alot of work and research in marine and aquatic farming /integrated aquaculture so i can help with some advice

Anybody knows where sells this locally?

Razkal · Postby **Razkal** » August 29th, 2009, 4:32 pm

^yeah smurf...almost any pet store on the east-west corridor that looks functional has it

only problem is the price varies from $60 - $80 for one of the 140g tins, used this for like three months and the Koi Vibrance with colour enhancers worked way WAY better for quick growth and colour

its way cheaper too, $40-$45 per 140g tin...$225 for a giant bag (not sure of content weight).

^thats what u looking for buddy, same tin for both products, just different labeling.

Postby **2NR Smurf** » August 29th, 2009, 4:56 pm

^boom bang.
will check around then :mrgreen:

and yuh lookin to get rid ah dem barbs or what?

No shrimp or crabs in tank.

My disabled fish 'Blackie' died on Sunday after a year-long battle with swim bladder disease.

After futile attemts to keep him afloat (the tying a string around him with the other end tied to a wine cork does not work)

He was a friend, confidant and a true entertainer...he always brought looks of surprise, smiles and exclamations 'that peice of sh1t still alive' whenever I had people over.

He will be missed by all including his tank-mates The Whiteish One/Meanie, Sam and Greedy.
