hey mike, when they get the pictures thing fixed would you mind posting some real good pics of your tilapia? do they have nice colors? about how big do they get?
 
I'm going to acclimate a few of these new ones, and after they pass QT, I'm going to put 1 or 2 in with the rays. I think they will do just fine, and maybe give me some good pics.

Hey man, this thread is is really inspiring. It seems like you are on the right track. Congrats and I wish your business grows bigger and bigger.
 
Holy cow!!! am I behind here or what....

Well, here's what's on the PC so far. I'll get more!!!

The white Nile pics is a couple weeks old now, but they have doubled in size at least!!! The water isn't new anymore, so the Iron is turning it colors now... I need to get a greensand filter!

The 2nd and 3rd pic are the White Nile Tilapia that were fry when I got them. The pics are only a few weeks apart, but they doubled in size or more.

The 2nd to last pic is one of my best males, he's about 8" or so now.

The one's I just bought are all much bigger...The pool is up close to 70 degrees now and it's supposed to be warm out tomorrow, so I should be able to get them starting on monday....might take me a few trips.
