Now that's what I call "going green".
Mercury is found in fish atbth
This brings hope and employment while reducing wasteful transpiration.
one word, Genius.
I'm going to build one in my room…I love eating fish but I don't like paying money for it
What are they using to feed the fish.
Feeding PHarmed Fish remains the biggest obstacle.
Are they being fed antibiotics, growth hormones, hydrolyzed poultry feathers and such?
Imagine this franchised in a manner to where the community ultimately gains with overall economic stability. Bravo!
Very cool
Are there any known differences between these yellow perchand tilapia
This system is ideal for sustainable development and of course, the fish does not have mercury like the fish from the oceans. At the same time there is no need for transportation. Very god guys keep on telling people how to do it in underdeveloped countries.
Let's hear it for mercury free fish. What a wonderful idea. I hope that this catches on around the US.
These, instead of IMF and Wall St, are reasons we go to school. IMF and Wall St are one big scam and brain washing magazine we must eliminate with modern communication. We don't need them to trade our resources and our valuable efforts.
This is absolutely fantastic….Godspeed!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I wish there was a "Growing Power" here in the San Antonio Texas inner city.
wow this is awesome!
That, is cool.
that is bad ass
Love what youre doing and your informative video Thank you!! What is the best ph level for the fish? Im a pioneer with an open source sustainable community project called OneCommunityRanch (a .org) and we are getting ready to set up an organic farm using Aquaponics and are hoping to find some members educated in this system of growing. Thank You for the video and in helping to change our world!!
This is so awesome. OUTSTANDING! Thanks for sharing.
