JUST ADD WATER!

That's right! Home Tilapia farming offers a solution to the ever-more-difficult problem of finding a fish at a store that is fresh, clean, affordable, and virtually organic.

After all, with home-grown Tilapia, you will have intimate knowledge of its whereabouts from its birth to your dinner table!

Can you say that about that tasteless, overdone salmon fillet you had at that franchise restaurant last time?

How about that tuna salad from a can?

(I've always wondered how they get a tuna to fit in such a small can. Hmmm.)

The key to Tilapia farming at home is the "breeder colony."

Our breeder colonies consist of 5 females and 1 male. You can easily breed them in a home aquarium!

And on this website, I'll show you how you can turn your backyard into a Tilapia farm to stock your backyard farm or aquaponic system.

Just like cats and dogs, etc.there are various breeds of Tilapia.

When I launched this website in 2008, I had Pure breed Hornorum and pure breed Orange Mossambica breeder colonies

(pictured below: the male is the gray Hornorum, the females are Mossambica). They produce all-natural, all-male offspring!

Unfortunately these are no longer available. Their possession requires a permit in most states which severely limited their desirability.

I now have expanded my selection to include Pure breed Blue Tilapia (certified as pure breed by the Florida Dep't of Agriculture!)

Hornorum/Mossambica Breeder colonies

This is a video of a Hornorum/Mosambica breeder set in action. They are quite young but already breeding!

The pure breed O. Hornorum male in this picture is about five inches long.

The orange ones are pure breed O. Mossambica females.

This is the End Result!

This Hornorum/Mossambica hybrid is only a pound or so, and he has some weight to put on still.

He is all bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, eh?
