OK, pricing for 70-80mm Barramundi and delivery has been confirmed... so I'll be emailing everyone tonight/tomorrow morning...

If I miss anyone... or if there's anyone wanting any that hasn't put their hand up... let me know ASAP...as I'd like to actually organise delivery next week... and delivery to everyone over the weekend 6th/7th and/or during the following week...

The bags were pretty well maxed out to cut freight costs... and they didn't look to flash when I first got home...

Compromised the acclimatisation a bit because of it.... and it showed....

We went from air 38 / tank 24... the other day..... to wet and cold today... 18 degrees... tank 19...

Poor little buggers looked sick as for an hour when they first went in.... due to temperature shock...

But they have perked up now... and should be fine...

Only had a cursory look this morning... but all seems fine... no losses what so ever...

Even the larger ones that looked very poorly... are swimming around OK...

Now to get some heat into them...

Rup
Any idea how much the barra weight?
I want to put it in the filter design spreadsheet and see what my 25L biofilter can handle. It'll give me an idea what filtration to expect if hooking into one of the tanks while heating overnight as well as extra filtration for a few weeks.

Life's funny,a few days ago icing the trout and today heating the barra. Fortunately min temp is good. Up here showers with dry patches, FT 20 deg
