At the end of 2013, I decided to get my real estate license. I am now working for Keller Williams Jacksonville Realty. Although I have passed the test, I still have a lot to learn about the actual process. Fortunately for me, I am versed in sales and know Jacksonville fairly well since I have lived here my whole life. My real estate website
In addition to my new job, I have become infatuated with my new hobby; Aquaponics. I first saw a system last year at One Spark (A crowd funding festival in Jacksonville, FL). All year, I have thought about that system. But mainly I thought about other projects that I would like to present at One Spark like a desalination system that could provide water from the Atlantic Ocean to Jacksonville or tidal turbines that could go in the St. John's River and provide power to Jacksonville.
With all these grand ideas, I only have so much time, a family to raise, dogs to walk and health to maintain so I keep them in my head with hopes of presenting them soon. In the mean time, aquaponics seems to be an easy project to start up a little cost.
My first system is very small and put together completely with handmedowns from my cousin's old hydroponics system. video of my small system. My plan is to go from this 10 gallon system to a 30 gallon system in about a month. I want to see how this works out first before I jump to the next size. My goal is to eventually raise tilapia instead of gold fish. In an ideal world, I would also like to raise trout, fresh water catfish and other species. But one step at a time.
