Hi Hopefuls,

If you are looking for more contacts: I recently got some fish shipped in from Murray Darling fisheries to Adelaide. They were pretty helpful, (a little slow on the order as they were busy and I was only after a smaller order) and most fish survived the journey.
I ordered 100 murray cod and 200 perch. Prices were pretty good with delivery.

However, most of the Perch had ich - but with the salted water, they seem to be doing ok!

Let me know if you want any more info. I have a few other contacts for us SA Great people, but these guys were the cheapest at the time (1 month ago).

Well I stand corrected...
But that is not too bad.
For me trout at $2+ each is way easier than me trying to produce lings...
or hold them over from November.


and that too Mon. :cheers:

Monya, your latest deal is great. I might be looking at a few fins and some feed - hoping to pop into the Adelaide meet.
I know the ich was free, but I feel it was one of those added bonuses that just wasn't worth it. :( I let the suppliers know that they had ich, but they weren't too bothered by small fry such as myself.
They SP varied in size a bit (25mm->50mm). Overall, about 180 of 200+ survived. And a couple of the cod made a meal of some others when they escaped!
Just trying to wean the cod now. The SP are loving life in Adelaide.
