Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

What do you think about it.I mean we can find it in every pet shop they eat almost anything. We know how to breed them and some times they eat them but i dont know about their taste so i if anybody knows how to fillet them and some recipe

Have you ever tasted one? How fast do they grow?..probably not a commercial food source for a reason, but who knows, give it a try!

They apparently taste pretty good but I haven't tried them, this is based on an old book from the 1970's on fish farming where they grew Tilapia along with Oscars to control the population. I have no idea how they were prepared

Slow growing I think, my brother had a couple at one stage in a 4 ft fish tank. But maybe in a larger tank they would grow quicker.

Not if you're putting them in your flow through system o the side of a river...

And i will get them from pet store.and they have a pretty good growth rate about 10 inches in a year which is about 1 and a half lb
