Post subject:  Expanding an existing system- new FT
OH is talking about adding another fish tank (1000L+) to the system for the lady yabbies with babies... it will flow into the 800L trough in the ground instead of having a 100l drum for the yabbies which are in berry. Problem is... I'm not sure how to add the new tank if he gets it.

Do I fill it up and add some yabbies straight away or fill it, leave it, let it flow in and THEN add the yabbies after a while?

At the moment, we have about 30 yabbies and 4 goldfish.

He's making an offer on it today I think 8)

Easy connect it to the system and let the water circulate threw it for a day to balance then transfer the yabbies

+1 on the connecting it up and letting the added water plus system water circulate and mix before adding the critters into the new tank.

Fill with water, aerate for 24 hours, then turn pump on :)
