Hi,
in new here and just getting my Aquaponic system organised,

i live in penrith area sydney and am looking for some stock for my system.
hopefully someone can help or steer me in the right direction?

i was hopeing for about 200 x 5cm silver perch fingerlings or some bigger fish up to 20cm and maybe some sleepy cod or barramundy fingerlings or bigger fish. .
also hopefully 50 x adult blue marron or blue yabbies or 500 babies.
ive heard that blue marron are not as carniverous as yabbies thus the reason id rather marron,

not sure if im allowed to put my email adress or phone number here so i will wait for a reply.
cheers marty.

reason i was hopeing for blue maron was so they wouldnt eat the fingerlings like yabbies are supposed to.
am i correct in that marron arnt fingerling eaters?
thanx in advance for any information.

im also going to grow fresh water weed, worms, crickets and meal wormsetc for feed.
