The last time I ran it 24/7 through late spring, summer, and early fall it was about $100.00 per month. That was two years ago. I'm sure it's gone up a little as the power company is slowly increasing their rates. I did luck out on something though. If I had be on the other side of the highway my power bill would have been higher according to a friend the raises hybrid striped bass in an RAS system. It would have been a different power company.

If I didn't sell my trout I probably wouldn't pump the water. However they more than pay for the cost of the power, feed, and over time the initial cost of the well, well pump, and pond.

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
