Aaron - the ratio of plants to fish to gallons of water will vary greatly

depending on the design of the system, and many of them are represented on

this list.  Do you have a specific type system in mind?  That might be the

best place to begin your calculations.

As our only personal experience is with Tilapia, I'll refer you to the web

site of our friends in Sweden who are raising rainbow trout.  Their web site

and contact information is:

>> 3) Has anyone out there tried propogation in an aquaponic system?

We've propagated many different varieties of plants - herbs, vegetables,

ornamentals.  Is there a specific process you would like detailed?

For all you still interested in the free pond management software with 

documentation try the address below again.  I just visited the site and it's 

working.

I just caught up with the Jones and got AOL's instant messaging system

(www.aol.com) and am fascinated by it. If anyone else here is on it

already, I would love to create my own Aquagroup to discuss ideas etc

online in real time...
