Got a question for anyone who knows the answer:
When would be the best time to purchase trout fingerlings in South Australia?
DISCLAIMER! I'm not looking to purchase them as my system is only a few weeks old just curious when it starts here.

I'm in the same boat, picked up 1doz rainbows 6-7" today from Tooperang, hopefully they'll grow to a decent size before water temps increase, will be creating shade over FT this winter in prep for spring, have a thick slab of foam/eco wall 75mm expanded polystyrene that I've fashioned into a lid and have clad the FT IBC cage in corro, hopefully be able to extend grow out time. First year so will see how it all goes.

If your climate is similar to Perth, I know that troutman has been busy selling trout, he had his carpark sale down at Cheidy's 2 or 3 weeks ago. You really need to monitor your system temps to get a good idea when you can stock to suit your local area.
