They are not big yet... right now is about 2 fish for 1 kg... good Tilapia have to be 1 kg per fish...but we eat them anyway lol.... I don't know that can make money,but I get fun to look at them when I have my morning coffee ...

Hi BB

Think how much you pay for one in a local restaurant ~~~ not a lot of scope for profit!

I can always make fence around it, it might not look nice but keep strangers away from it. HOPE SO.

Most farangs would consider it not too profitable, I think.
Maybe you might get a bit of enjoyment out of it, if you either fish yourself or eat a lot of fish.

We are growing both tilapia and catfish in our pools. The anticipated profit on the next batch which represents 4-5 months work will be around Â£8k. My intention is to have 3 cycles per year which will i believe be an adequate return from that part of the business. A lot will depend on scale. I find the most expensive cost is the fish food as most of it is bought in pellet form by the 20kg bag. averaging 420 bht each.Good luck if you decide to take the plunge.

Yeah ! I really enjoy mine : ) ...I try the one we just bought...it's run good,but very heavy for me to push around...and I really happy to get a new one from him...Thank you my darling : )

Yes, me myself and I will have alot of fun, because so called power woman thinks it is too heavy and wants to take it back. The new lawn mower is not much heavier, but it runs a bit heavier across the lawn because unlike the old machine the skirt of this one combs the grass before it hits the blade to give it a better cut.
Tee rack's conclusion: The old one was more fun to work with. (Pity it did not cut the grass well anymore) But after all why do we have a lawn mower? Not to cut the grass but to have fun isn't it?
Wait till I get back to Holland. She will have the old one fixed and will use it when I am not around.

But I will check her biceps when I get back to find out what happened during my absence hihihihi
