Run out of space for new strawberry runners, October to February are the months where these plants produce lots of runners. Decide to make a rack for these new plants and maybe they can grow better before figuring what to do next.

Above container can hole about 50 pots of new strawberry plants, I will need to get same size pots to get them easily arranged.

Rack above was from surplus material that I have and reassemble to make a 3 shelf rack and I use the car boot plastic tray to hold those pots. Water added to tray and some nutrient to ensure those plants can survive. This is required since I am planting the runners without parental stolon.

diy aquaponics siphon | Its Tilapia Time Again This Time Deep Fried

16.27 in again, Aquaponics, deep, fried, its, this, tilapia, time

diy aquaponics siphon

This current batch of Tilapia a little slow to grow, maybe not enough feed. If it is fed too much then it will form more fat in the fish. So give it a lean diet to reduce this fat, fish in the wild dont get fed twice daily, they forage for food and eat what they find.

 Catch few Tilapia today and have it deep fried as a simple dinner.

Each of these are palm size and just nice for Malay cooking.

 Its easy to catch since my fish tank is only 4 feet in length and about 12 inches of water.

 Five Tilapia in the pail and next to get them clean and prepared.

 Fresh fish, once cleaned next step is to marinate them.

I use a simple old traditional way of marinating with salt, turmeric and a bit or tamarind to flavor the fish and get rid of the fishy smell.

  Let it stand for few minutes, like half an hour.

Deep fried the fish in oil until golden brown, it will give good aroma since the fish is fresh of the tank.

 While its being fried, I prepare the final flavoring. Onion slice, Chili and some garlic these for the final fried together with the last piece. It doesnt matter with which, but I normally do it with the last fish.

 Last fish in..

 Those onion, chili and garlic (whole) ready for your turn.

 Turn over the fish, only then add the above to fried with the side needs cooking.

 Once fish cooked, remove it and switch off the flame and scoop up the garnishes to add on top of the cooked fish.

Walla.. its ready.

Simple and fresh, take it with hot rice and some fresh vegetable salad.. it priceless.

diy aquaponics indoor | Its Technology At Its Best My 31st Post on 31st August 2014 Merdeka

diy aquaponics indoor

I have been a blogger since 2006, the Aquaponics blog was up in 2009 after I had learn some of its basic and confident that it will be something good. My earlier photos and videos was done on a Canon IXUS V3 which was cutting edge technology at its time and bloody expensive for a 3.2 mega pixel camera that struggle to do VGA videos. Its price is equivalent to a Sony Alpha 6000 at present day rate.

My first aquaponics video was done on a Nokia E71 smart phone, its long gone retired to Tech heaven after serving very well as phones but not so much as a video recorder. Video below was done with this phone, it was my attempt to make known my siphon design to those that is interested in trying it out.

Time passed us by and more cameras, phones etc then most of my videos and photos were made on my trusty Panasonic Lumix LX5. It is capable of 720p video and good still image resolution. This camera give me the confident to get a good shot most of the time, but to get those photos on line is a hassle to do.

It is a good camera, but then Lumix LX7 were out however feature wise it is not worth an upgrade. Action cam GoPro Hero 3 Black is use mostly for my motoring shots, as a video cam it is difficult to use since it does not have a view finder or screen of any sort.

Above video was done with the Lumix LX5, it is a good camera and can do good video with enough time on each take. Along side this camera I did use a Nikon D5000 DSLR, but it is large and not practical to do video since it lack auto focus.

Lumix LX5 was my main camera to do most video and still until smart phones like the Samsung Note start to emerge in the market. I find that I am using more and more of the phone for my still shot and reserve only video to the LX5.

However things starting to head totally towards smart phones with introduction of Samsung Galaxy S5,  I find that not only it do satisfactory photos for blog post but it will do great video too. It has video auto focus and all the bang and whistle in a small package, photo compression, watermark and even a blogging apps that put icing on the cake.

I am not a fan of selfie but a phone holder on a tripod make this phone a good video capture device sufficient for my blogging needs. It small size and powerful features make it ideal for blog on the go and not to mentioned replying to email and facebook messenger send to me.

Video above was shot using the Galaxy S5 with audio from a Sony IC Recorder doing a voice over with Corel Video Studio Pro X6 software.

Technology has change so much over the last few years, it is just like yesterday that I still can recall my first computer the ZX81 by Sinclair with a whooping 256k of memory trying to programmed for a few hours making dot to cross the TV screen.

All this technological advancement is good, and Ill try to use it to make better blog and give easier to understand video and blog post.

Cheers
