Mike,

When I was looking for fly larvae info the other day,
I came
across a vet using maggots to remove dead/diseased
tissue
from livestock.  I know in Vietnam, they saved
soldiers by
doing the same thing
.it's an amazing and often
misunderstood
world.

Someone is looking into it Mike
*smiling*
.and
someone does
find it interesting
.Aquaponics produces the kind of
food our bodies
need. Good protein and healthy greens
.but the way is
does it,
though water and motion
.this has the potential to
heal and calm.
I think aquaponics can produce food for the soul.  It
can be
an artistic outlet too as I saw in the lily
vases/betta bowls. We
limit our potential for this experience to confine it
to a food only
system.  You have found yet another use

Thanks for

I see your waste oil burners and raise you a waste
tire burner.

Does anyone think they would have a hard time getting
hold of old tires?  The only drawback I know of is
that I was told that the system is very large and
expensive -- for lots of square feet.

Sorry for opening this discussion again. I spoke to a
physician on the risks
of low voltage dc, 9V, when the current is transmitted
through the bodily
fluids, as would happen when one's skin is pricked. He
said that this would
be fatal if the current cross the heart. This is when
it flows from one hand
to the other.

If we combine this with the other e-mails, the one on
the guy who tested his
internal resistance and another one on bad wires that
might prick the skin,
it is better to be very careful.

Just thought I must tell you all.

able to visualize training fingerlings to nip away
wounded flesh when I had
a hard  enough time trying to get my son to clean his

Thank you!  The thing we take for granted can be

Mark,

  Teresa may have modified her question more based on
Tilapia are not
permitted to be farm raised in California due to the
threat of being an
introduced exotic. Based on her location near
Sacramento she has a different
climate and local market demand may be different than
other locations. Just
like the thread we had going over the use of the Zebra
Mussel in a
controlled environment, CA is going to be forced to
work with a rising
market demand to supply the state with more than
channel cat, rainbow trout,
King salmon, sturgeon
. Crayfish though seems to be
pretty abundant in the
wild as they roam through rice fields like malcontent
youth.
  Real Estate prices are the great equalizer here in
setting up an
operation. Farms are being turned into Kaufman and
Broad developments faster
than you can say,"Huh?" Every time I ride up to
Sacramento to work for the
state contractors board once a month, each town I ride
through looks like
the one I just left. Its a spooky foreshadowing of
things to come
everywhere. Californication is not a pretty site. I
applaud anyone in this
state attempting to reverse the trend of turning every
available building
into a dot.com ditto. Just my rant before heading out
into traffic.

We are in Arizona and Mexico. We have not found one
company paying for waste
oil. All of the car dealers we called This morning and
yesterday say they
are charged a minimum of $50.00 per load. There are 4
independent truckers
hear that have large trucks which hold 12 gallons
each. Farm tractors have
20 to 30 gallons in there transmissions. Tractor
dealers also have a lot of
oil hear to get rid of. In Arizona you can become

I think an individual could set up a neighborhood

Many new car dealers have them back east and a lot
hear in the west.
Not all oil burners are the same. There are some that
put out smoke and drop
soot on anything out side, around the building . They
use a pot and drip oil
in. You get black cleaning the old type. The new type
work like a diesel
engine and inject oil in to a combustion chamber. You
get a small amount of
gray dust out every 1000 hours, if you buy the right
type. They burn at over
1000 degrees F so the oil is totally burned. The good
brands do not smoke.
Red River Produce uses a boilers  for heat as we do.
They
heat the tanks and run tubes under the ground. We
copied there system but
added a radiator with a fan behind it to keep the air
in the houses from
getting too cold . We have about 50 days a year that
can get down to the
high 20's at night.

The old systems had to be filled with oil by hand, the
new units are all
automatic. you set a thermostat and oil is moved to
the units by pump
automatically. We get big used tanks and fill them all
summer when the big
oil producers that have units do not use the oil. We
even bought stock in a
quick lube to get the oil.

We size our units by the inside cubic feet of space.
Single wall houses need
around 5-6 BTU's per inside cu ft of space. double
wall buildings get by
with less 4-5 BTU's. Water rock gravel or other high
mass materials hold in
heat. greenhouses make good solar collectors. dig a
hole fill it with 6"
rock and vent out through it all day when it is
warmer. At night reveres the
flow then use the oil heat as a back up. The rocks
store huge amounts of
heat all day then give up heat slowly at night. Water
will do the same thing
but you must run tubes through it to push the solar
heated air.

Smiling
 Arlos arlos arlos.
Adrianna will remember that we spoke at length once
about alternative
medicines and herb usage etc, especially those of
aquaponically grown
herbs. I am not going to get into it
.but alternative
methods of
treatment are out there and they work.Mon U could go to Negril Beach and see the same thing
here in Jamaica!!
I once had a funny experience walking with a bunch of
guineps ( a sour
grape shaped fruit, growing in bunches) and was
spitting out the seeds
as I went, wlking on the shore, behind me. I kept
feeling a nipping on
my ankles, to my amazement I stopped and looked around
and basta
. a
whole gadzillion as ted wouls say of tiny fish were
ripping the remains
of the guineps to shreds, and nipping me in the
process.

I found that because of the levels of tourists in the
water
. that the
fish were REALLY tame!! and very hard to shoo away.so it was better
not to go with food in the water. 

My Mom used to "swear" by saltwater. When we had any
trauma in the
family, 3 boys 2 boy cousins, lotsa adopted bros and
sisses then she
would take us to the sea. The scabs get surprisingly
soft and mushy, and
tiny fish, especially herbivorous fish, dont have the
choppers you may
think they have. They nip quite softly, especially
when there are a
whole shoal of them and only an inch to 2 inches big.
AS I said
previously they seem to STOP biting as soon as they
didnt see anymore
mushy scab or soaked skin.
I can see in a space of my greenhouse like
 this
fellow
http://tomsgreenhouse.50megs.com/ with the added spa
treatment mark
up
.I mean we need as many diverse markets in this
aquaponics thing as
possible here mon!! Remember
. lateral thoughts
man
.hehehehe :) you
would be surprised at what you may find. Aquaponics in
the heyday, and
spa all throughout for cash flow
.!!

In the meantime, dont tell folks you KNEW the
originator of this crazy
idea till I send ma Lear jet over fer ya
.!!
OK
.lol
???

What a day!! Lateral thought is FANTASTIC!! Thanks to
Mark I now have a

Hatch Contractors got in to trouble disposing of the
left over tire residue
and  the 500,000 BTU law ,any single unit over 500,000
BTU's is an
incinerator not a heater. EPA and state regulations
kick in at  500,000 and
you must apply for an air quality permit.  For your
own protection stick
with equipment that is UL listed. But if you are big
enough and you need
that much heat it is a good idea. I was told the

Contact you local Case Farm Tractor Dealer. We have
very many over 20
gallons. The transhydaulic system supplies oil for
hydraulic attachments and
lubricates the gears in the rear end and trany. I can
post the spec sheet on
lub requirements, it is over in the mechanics shop.
But you miss the point
they have a lot of oil that gets hauled away. As heat
it will replace 2 or
more gallons of propane.

Brent, 

I rebuilt the tranny in a D-8 Cat dozer. If I remember

Subject: [FUTURE-CITIES] Re: [isml] GM tomato thrives
on salt 

This was on CTV news last night (print news) billed as
a U of T discovery.
I used to do a little hydroponic tomato farming, and
my tomatoes rooted in
100% sawdust in plastic troughs. I visited another
tomato farmer who was
growing by what they called "nutrient film technique".
The roots just
dangled in water and the nutrients were added to the
water. Neither soil
nor simulated soil are needed. If a variety of GM
ocean-water crops can be
grown the implications are indeed staggering. The
entire ocean surface
could be used for land crops. A Buckminster Fuller
"Deep Sea City" could
grow land crops in the ocean water, as could cities
built along
shorelines. Then there is "tissue culture
technology"
.growing food in
vitro. But that seems to be further down the road for
practical use.

Subject: Pacu vs Bluegill
From:    "STEVE SPRING" 
Date:    Tue, 31 Jul 2001 17:59:19 -0500

Hi Bruce,

Got  a call from Dennis today. He said that the Pacu
are still going to cost
me around $1.40 - $1.50 ea plus s&h which would make
them cost around $1.75
ea.

Bruce, I think I am going to pass on this and just do
the hybrid bluegills.
(If my feeble memory serves me right, I can get the
bluegills in for about
$.37/ea including shipping.) As Gordon said in one of
his last posts, he is
running 300 bluegills in a 1,000 gal system. I should
be able to stock 500 -
750 in my 1,600 gal system and still have 1,000 -
1,250 in the pond. Besides
all of this, I can sell Bluegill all day long and if I
go with the Pacu, I
have to start educating people to a different fish
again.

Also, Gordon is maintaining his water temp around 60F
for the bluegills vs
80F for the Tilapia. This will significantly decrease
my power consumption
(thereby operating $) because when the tank water
heater kicks in the power
consumption goes "through the roof".

(I'm cc'ing the list with this just to see if anybody
else has any input
concerning this.)

Thanks

Mike,

  No argument about the value of alternative medicine
from me. living on the
Pacific rim offers a chance to see herbs certainly not
found in
America's heart land that I would be interested in
growing via aquaponics.
I'm going to check with a Doctor of Oriental Medicine
I know and ask her the
effects on herbs grown in the water as specific
properties of soil and
orientation on the land (east facing hill, etc

)
impart characteristics
that may or may not be affected by aquaponics.Growing
ginseng has certainly
made the A list here but its a 3 yr. crop minimum.
Along with tiger ginger
and porcelain garlic a fresh water eel that is BBQ'd
had definite
possibilities. A variety of lettuce called, "Kentucky
limestone bib lettuce"
is about the most exotic salad product I can find
locally that hasn't been
grown by everyone up and down the road

   From diving, I've seen first hand cleaner shrimp
and cleaner Wrasse
working the crowd as it were on Morey eels. as to the
therapeutic value of
sea water, again no argument. Surfing since I was a
fry until my son was
born, I never had a cold and yes sores always healed
quicker being in the
ocean frequently. I'm still not going to bath with my
Red Claw.

Everyone should run a firewall and a virus detection
progran."ZoneAlarm" is an 
excellant firewall , free for the download(search zone
alarm) and I wouldn't 
connect without it these days.
As to attachments
. don't open them unless they are
from a KNOWN trusted 
source.Any relevant info sent to a group (such as this
mail list ) can easily 
be posted onto a website for general public
viewing.Free web-space is readily 
available.

Darren,

  Got it, use it. Great program. I happen to know the
developer, he used to
be one of the top dogs at Borland. I particularly like
the feature when some
lowlife is pinging your 'puter and you can email them
or call and politely
let them know it's not nice to sneak around in some
else's CPU. I did this
to someone local one morning and said I was one my way
down to his office to
have a little chit chat as zone alarm kept warning me
he was attempting to
access my end. (I'm 6'3" and 245 lb and don't play
well with others before
I've had coffee in the morning)

.She likes to have the last word but with me she never
seems to. So she
laughs with me and argues with any body else.

Steve,

Another thing I love about bluegill here in Indiana
and much of the country is the fish truck stops at a
farm and fleet store about a mile from here. When I
get
my other aquarium set up, I am going to throw a couple
of grass carp in for the heck of it.  I will agree
that
under ideal conditions, tilapia are hard to beat
.but
we
don't all have those conditions.  For cooler water,
price
and availability, hybrid bluegill are hard to beat
here.

Well, I'm still here. Got an email from David Weeks
but I was afraid to
respond to it. I was right. He is a member of the
list. It seems like his
mailing list was infected.

I guess that to be absolutely certain, you need to
know that an attachment
is coming and from whom it is coming from. I kind of
relate this to people
who throw nails on a road and who put poison in
Tylenol bottles. Lets hurt
someone
.doesn't matter who
.just hurt someone. Heil
Hitler and all that
stuff!!  :(

Maybe I'll survive. We'll see.
