  • thanks for answering all my questions,, just one more thing,, can you share where you purchased the thermostat that regulates the heater element?? Plus,, do you think you could maintain 80 F in a greenhouse located in the winter months ( Ohio )???

  • @grandmastermicochero Greenhousemegastore. com. search for moisture proof digital thermostat. If your thinking of heating a greenhouse in OH with heat from the fish tanks, no way. It's expensive enough in a well insulated room.

  • its ok my husband thinks ive lost my mind too, our house is filled with plants seeds, there are chickens in the back yard, veggies growing in the front yard & back yard. now i want to raise talapia. are you raising your fish for food? im thinking great fish emulsion for hydroponics which in turn could give some filtration to the water. we live in an urban area so the neighbors get a kick out of it

  • @swoop1111 Yes, definitely for food but also because I enjoy it. It's been a difficult project. Not as easy as many would have you believe. As the fish grow, their demands keep increasing. Steve.

  • Can't you use solar heating to save money on electricity?

  • @vickim247 that is also on my list.

  • Nice room,clean install.

  • brilliant project, very interesting, thanks a lot fishandworms

  • Tell your wife we don't think you're nuts. This is really cool.

  • best video description everywhere. Anybody watching this video probably knows at least one other person who is thinking the same thing.

  • Haha, I like the video description.

  • Awesome video! I am a plumber and i am very pleased with your set-up! You have done a great job! I love how neatly you have installed the entire plumbing system...very professional and clean! I have a few questions, are you building this to sell the tilapia at some point in the future? Or just for personal experimentation? Also why did you drill the holes in the glass tanks below water level, verses at overflow level? How much money do you have invested so far? When complete, Profit Margin?

  • hey dude do you do holes in the aquariums???

  • G'Day Sir Fishandworms,

    Greetings and best wishes. Can you please share with me how you installed the heater elements and temperature sensors in the side of your IBC sump? I am trying to do the same here. First challenge is how to anchor the mount for the heater element in the side of the IBC. Your prior comments have have helped where to get parts but the mounting bracket through the side is what I dont understand

    Many thanks for your time and attention.

    Warm Regards.
