Now that my Murray Cod are eating mostly ox heart and worms, and a few pellets, I have plenty of excess starter pellets left over.

High quality slow sinking pellets to ensure your fish have the best possible start. Suitable for Barramundi, Perch, Trout, Murray Cod and various other species. I have 2mm size, which is suitable for native fish, up to 125mm in length for Perch.

I paid just over $5/kg for the bag (including freight), and am sellling for $5/kg + postage.
I can vacuum pack small quantities in 1 or 2kg lots, or sell the lot- the bag probably has over 15kg left in it.

Good timing, I was just pondering the food for the SP I'm planning on getting soon. I have no idea how much I need though, but I guess if I got say 5kg it would last a while for only 30 or less fish? :think:

Do you know how much postage would be? Would the food fit in the pre-paid satchels that AusPost do?

Questions, questions too many questions, you want a shard? Here! Lol, sorry, I was channelling Aughra from The Dark Crystal there for a second. :-P

Ok, put me down for 5kg, let me know if you need me to PM you my postcode/address to get a postage quote.

Thanks for offering it for sale, I was looking at Ridleys for bulk SP and trout food, but didn't want to buy a full 20kg bag of SP food if they were going to outgrow it before I got through it.

I'll have to find a suitable box, I wouldn't trust the PO not to burst open a bag of it! Running some guesswork numbers for box size through the post calculator for a couple of Vic postcodes near Melbourne comes up with $25, so that will do.

Yea, 20kg is a lot of food when it's a size they grow out of in a few months. My Murray Cod are demolishing 10-12mm chunks of meat these days, and are just not interrested in small pellets.

I'd guess it would last quite a few months for 30 fish, depending on how much they eat per day.

I'll get my people to talk to your people via PM or email for internet banking details etc ;)

Just a quick bump and a thank you to Gunagulla. The pellets arrived quickly and well packaged, and of course Gordon is super friendly and professional too.

I almost convinced my girls they were giant chocolate sprinkles but they are wise to my trickery nowadays!
