Backyard Fish Farm – raising Tilapia (yes, fish) in your own yard. For eating and using the tank water for your garden. Sounds like a plan.
The website, My Backyard Fish Farm (MyBFF), is run by Tilapia Mama, and she holds workshops to teach people how to do this. The South Bay Botanic Garden installed a tilapia system in its green house and uses the treated fish water on its plants. Intriguing, to say the least. The only problem is….where am I going to fit this into the yard?!
And I thought that talking to Mi Esposo about chickens was going to be tricky!

I am looking for books on rasing fish.
Hello Dennis,
I’m not familiar with any. I only posted this one post but it’s amazing how many times it has been hit! Definitely an interest to many. Good luck!
A new book is Aquaponic Gardening by Sylvia Bernstein.
Hope this helps
Thank you Talithia. This post has been one of my most visited, so this will be useful info for my readers.
