Hi fishie friends, Finally we have had time to finish the plumbing on the fledgling aquaponics sysytem - now I am looking for some trout, of a description suitable to grow on through a Melbourne Winter...probably 20? Where do I get these little beasties? and probably an aerator/water bubbler of some description too - for an 180OL tank... Anyone got anything?! Vegiegirl

Fish Feed? I imagine so. Planning on buying some just after easter... too busy and going hiking for the break. They're just the other side of Belgrave, in Macclesfield. If convenient we could go together yes. |

Aha, near Belgrave hey. I am happy to go there, (and visit a friend in Monbulk) I'm in Pascoe Vale South - if I go before you I'll let you know and could drop some off on the way home for you? vg

sure thing, Aaron wants 2 of each as well... I'll be too busy to even receive them until Wednesday week (after easter) So if you want them sooner don't worry about me  I want 50 of each rainbows and browns |

Who is Aaron? What do you reckon is the easiest for a raw beginner, brown, rainbow or other? vg

John from glenwaters said he was fine. When I rang yesterday he made it sound like they were spawned at his joint last year. |
