VOS1-11 Full Episode - Farming Fish

We check out the supersized aquaponics setup at Maui Aquaponics, where Ed Cichon and Chris Kiser show us how they grow talapia and lettuce in a pest and fertilizer free environment. We then tour UH Sea Grant Hilo's sturgeonfish and other aquaculture projects with Kevin Hopkins.

    this is the one of the cleanest operation I have seen but please check the feed quality as most of the pellets are loaded with harmful chemicals like Ethoxyquin which is very harmful for plant and animal consumption as well as PCP"S from the concentrated fish oils used in making the fish feed pellets so make sure your feed is made with chemicals which are conducive to good health

    Safe stocking density is about 80-100kg of fish at the end of growth cycle. That means if you harvest after say 6 months, then per 1000lts you should have about 85-100kgs of fish when you harvest( not when you put the baby fishes, so don't add 85kgs of baby fishes initially ). So basically you can find out how much this species of fish grows at the end of harvest cycle. And you should be fine with that...for all this calculation you need to know how many liters of water your pond can hold.

    Yes, I have been farming red claw crayfish and tilapia, best location is where you are at a slight elevation with free flowing, clean water that you don't need to pump in our out, ideally in a purpose build facility where you have full predator exclusion ( not so much a problem with fish culture ) Tilapia is usually not worth the effort because of its low market value...

    first, they are an aquaponics farm, the hatchery is secondary. second, there isnt a hatchery in hawaii. third, tilapia are the gold standard for aquaponics due to how little they eat, how fast they grow, and how easy they are to care for. 4th they have to ship in all the food for the fish they raise, and because they are in hawaii that price is sky high. so, they get the fish that is best for them in aquaponics, they corner the market in hawaii selling fish to other aquaponic farmers, and keep their feed prices low. the money they are bringing in on organic lettuce in hawaii dwarfs the sales of fish.

    +BadgerLaser - I agree with you 100%. I can smell them in Lettuce and Tomatoes especially. Although I love Tomatoes... But I can smell them on certain Tomatoes and from my guessed it might be from Fish Bone / Meal Fertilizer, Aquaponics, etc.... Most People can't Smell it or Taste it, but I certainly can. Sometimes People would argue against it. I am sooooo GLAD, you are NOT one of them. Funny thing is... It took me a long time figure that out, why Tomatoes taste sooo Fishy and Smelly too, LOL.

I guessed me and you both should be grateful that we are not like them, LOL. Here is a funny story, and this is recently... Just one day... All of the sudden, I was able to Taste, Smells, Hear Distinctive Sounds, See different Leaves on trees, even Rocks... They are all " Distinctive " looking! Something changes in me and I am able to see things differently now and it's hard to explain... But now I see Life is really beautiful.... Another funny thing is... I don't look at my Dog " poop " like I used to. I used to feel so gross from looking at it, but now I don't look at my Dog poop like that anymore. Even if I see flies on them, I no longer feel gross because that is their food. LOL...... Isn't that funny? LMFAO :D
