Where to visit Aquaponics system in SE QLD.

[DaveOponic]

Hi all,

I just joined this forum recently. (See my system in Introductions)
I have been doing Hydroponics for about two years here on Borneo. I have only started in Aquaponics about three months ago.

I am returning to QLD. for 10 days with my teenage son to check out Brisbane Universities with him as he plans to study in Qld.

I am hoping to visit at least one working Aquaponics setup either commercial or hobbyist. I guess my first contact will be any Aquaponics/Hydro retail shop in Brisbane. My home is on the Sunshine Coast but will also be visiting family in Nanango. I have a BMW touring bike so I am prepared to ride a long way to see a fish & vege operation.

I am keeping Koi at present but really interested in Tilapia as a food fish for my family.

If you have a system that you wouldn't mind showing off, please email me at: temerton@brunet.bn

I promise I won't ask too many dumb questions. I am planning to set up a system one day in Qld. and grow something I can sell eg. lettuce, Barra. etc. so I would love to see a small commercial setup and get some ideas and make some contacts for the future.


regards

I am also home most days as I work from home. I am on the northern end of the Gold Coast. PM me if you would like to visit. I should have the Jade Perch and all 3 grow beds set up by this weekend :)

Thanks Hamish & Murray for your replies and invitations, I have visited your website Murray and will give you a call when we get to Brisbane. Hamish, I can't email or PM through this site for some reason. Could you email me with contact details. I will try and get to see your setup if there's time.
