Just wondering if its too cold here in winter. Where I live it can get to -3•C at night but I have my tanks in front of a north facing brick wall half buried so I am hoping the temp of the water should be partly stable. 4.5L tanks. |

Ok thanks rup might try golden perch and trout then. Got my tanks on the ground and getting stainless grow beds fabricated as I type. Turns out they're heaps cheaper to make new than buy plastic tubs are to buy from large chain hardware stores. Will hopefully have some pics for posting next weekend then I might be able to contribute. |

Well that's a bit depressing. I can't seem to source rainbow trout, its too cold for barra and emerald perch and golden perch don't like tanks. Is silver perch my only worthwhile option? |
