- The resulting flavor and texture of the prawns is unparalleled. Just peeled and sliced, eaten raw. It tastes so deeply oceanically sweet that it conjures up that magical first bite of your first aguachile. The texture? Creamy enough to almost be spread on toast.

Guess what? That’s my son and his business and his sustainable shrimp are soaring! So proud!
Very cool ! Proud mom I see
do we need sea water to do this?
Thats awesome. I have a pool my family no longer uses as well as a smaller pool and an IBC. It looks kinda complicated to do at home but i sure would love to do it if i could.
Do you know where your son gets his shrimp tank container plastic liner? I breed pet fish, not competition lol
Congratulations! I'm sure you're proud. It's nice to see a person growing their business!
hope he is able to sell those shrimps live, would be a big seller in the asian community.
We will clear that place up in less then a day.
"We have raw shrimp all the time. If you wanted to try some, I could harvest some. ... if you're feeling daring." We all knew how Javier and Memo were going to answer that.
“Yes” answer is always Yes. Lol
My favorite dish is buying live shrimp from China town supermarket, then just dump them in salted boiling water for a few mins and serve. It’s absolutely amazing taste, compared to the dead / frozen ones. Wish more places will sell live shrimp, like live lobsters.
This is wild. Downey has a lot going on for such a small city!
Downey is DOWN af. 🦐
Do you know USA is the largest importer of white leg shrimp(vannamei) from INDIA
i love this biofloc system. what kind of carbon source and the quantities he added, thats the point and the reason that he can get so many shirmp.
So good!
Mind blowing that that much shrimp is only 0.05% of what California consumes annually. I'd be curious to see what future iterations of this system look like and how much market share it can take up. Awesome video and company!
Hi,
if some one like to replicate your setup. How much would it cost. Also can you provide consulatncy to help build such setup.
I’m very very curious what the turnaround in $ is…from Illinois and wanting to start something on a much smaller scale
Would be very helpful.could save the people that really on the river for survival.
I loved that !!! Very Helpful and Informative !!!
Wow, watching this video made me miss eating shrimp ceviche! My favorite dish here in the Philippines. 🤤
This was an awesome vid. Do more of these!!
If I did my math right that's 1 in every 20k shrimp for socal....I'd say there is plenty of room in that market
As a water treatment operator… I find this interesting AF! Hate shrimp tho.
Wow. This is awesome.
Hi, buddy. Good to see your great shrimp farming. How much you sale your shrimp per pound and how you market your shrimps? Please let me know I'm very interested it. Thank You and you have a great day.
this is awesome, love to see it!
Good growth. How do you feed minerals ,along with feed or mixing with water. If so please guide us what and how.
Aguaschiles sounds good right now
Somethings off with the audio. The voices only go thorough my left earphone.
Anyone who thinks you can just put some fish in a tank and call it "aquaponics" are people that end up learning the hard way, because they don't step back and think before venture into it. You cannot just take fish and plants like it's 1+1 = 2. There's a depth of understanding required to make it all function properly but more importantly, profitably.
What type of shrimp are they and do they grow the long arms like prawn
can we do in the East Cost..?
and Can I get the link, Please.
that's dope.
bomb ass prawns, serio
I build my aquaponics and my question is "Do i grow shrimp ?" if yes, can i buy PL from you?
How much investment required
The crunchy noise of the intro over the footage of him holding shrimp scared me so bad. I thought he smooshed the shrimp.
How do you start with eggs or where do you get eggs to start
I want to join this business. How can I link up with them and open a system myself
Hello
Wow
How big does this shrimp grow ?
hi were can i get hold of eggs or freshwater prawns to farm in south africa pls can you help
Do they sell to the public??
yep, you can pick up at the farm. Send DM
I would like to know how I can get some
Can I get some shrimp for my pond?
DEAR SIR
CAN I START A INDOOR VANNAMEI SHRIMP FARM IN A FRESH WATER(SALANITY ZERO PPT) TANK.
It is not recommendable, you should at least have 1 ppt of salt in your water, in zero ppt shrimps won't grow, I work in a shrimp farm in Ecuador and having zero ppt of salt is really problematic.
You never taste the digestive track people only notice it when it gets sandy on wild shrimp
I have dreamt of growing shrimps and prawns in commercial quantities but I don’t mind starting small. However, I need a mentor and training. Can you help?
My left ear was informed
I lived in Pacoima, where can I buy your shrimp?
Good
I eat so much shrimp I got iodine poisoning.
is that litopenaeus vannamei?
Do they sell to the public?
It is not shrimp 🦐 but it is prawns. Shrimp is small in size . Prawn is bigger than shrimp .
The audio is horrible man
👍
GOD MORNING TO ALL IM ALBERTO. ALVERIO MONDILLAJR OF MIRAMONTE LUKBAN PROVINCE OF QUEZON PHILIPPINES I!WISH SOMEDAY I CAN LEARN THE HOMEGROWN! SHRIMPS FARM THANKS GOD
So are these shrimp or are these prawns? Because they two really are not the same…
That is so true I was wondering the same thing why would you get that mixed up...
I wonder if they're trying to grow the shrimp in freshwater and that's why they're stating that they're prawns, I've noticed a few different people are growing Pacific white leg shrimp in a salt mixture,
Is that freash water?
Can they eat azolla veggies?
my right ear feels lonely
We just gonna ignore the pill head following him around?
i run shimp farms i wish i can communicate with him
What is the name of the Shrimps (White Tiger)
shrimp sashimi
6:13 😂😂
I'm always amazed that everyone always uses too much technology when setting up a farm - even an urban farm.
There are high-rise buildings in the city; Cascade shapes work really well - but no one does it!
Why does technology always have to determine everything?
Or asked the other way around: why does it have to work and work only with technology?
In nature, water flows constantly - and in most regions of the world, the movements of the sea - the tides - also determine what happens.
Why can't an artificial system be like a natural inflow water system? Why doesn't anyone do it in such a way that they create a kind of - let's say - cascade: pool level steps that are staggered in height?
Tanks have boundaries: they do not allow the migration of fish or, in your case, shrimps or mussels or crabs.
Cascade pools enable migration through all installed pools: the water can flow and run down from the top step of the cascade, falling down - i.e. water movement, generating good running water itself.
If you do it right - you won't have any problems with leftover food settling - nothing at all: the water will take everything with it.
And your shrimp eat everything organic anyway.
Downstairs you can use a special, technology-free, ancient option - using the water pressure you generate yourself - to transport the water back up: with a hydraulic ram that is completely maintenance-free and does not require any electrical power to operate.
Of course you want to heat - maybe you have to: you can use the water falling down the cascade and let it flow through an impeller that generates electrical current.
These are waterproof motors that do not require electricity but produce it themselves!
I don't understand how you can create high construction costs, installation costs, maintenance costs yourself when the whole thing is quite simple and can easily be done!
The problem is the cascade pools and a few million liters of water.
I often like to watch films from the internet, compare: so far only the Asians have made technology-free systems in the way that we do open-air carp farming here in Germany. The Asians have heavy, non-permeable soils - you put a foil tent over there and you're done!
Why do you have so much technology - so many pools - and why do you need so much space?
Greetings from Berlin
Do you get products from China? Specificaly any chemicals?
How are you doing now did you hit the brick wall yet
does a shrimp farm smell bad?
Volume down yo low
Dirty water!!?
Not dirty.. Just biofloc water (they look alike) 😄🙏
can't hear your voice
is the word "harvest" really appropriate here?..
Yes 👍
my right ear is lonely
