A place to discuss aquaponics

mines still overstocked if your short once the GBs are finished

I'll bring the compressor over for the spraygun once you let me know the weldings done

It must be going around, I did the same thing last night (unplugged the pump and forgot to plug it back in last night) but I only lost 6, rest were gasping near the bubbler. Eating the largest two ATM.

I call it an Early Harvest Event (EHE)

how long were they dead for? i considered eating mine after 12 hours but couldn't enjoy the meal even if it was perfectly ok.

The one was freshly dead, because it was still kind of moving and I tried to revive it by putting it in the bubble stream. That never seems to work BTW. The other one had been on the bottom and I too worried about it, it was a little stiff compared to the other which was still floppy, but I couldn't tell anything from the flavor and it seemed OK while filleting it. Ask me again in 24 hours!

i did contemplate eating mine, but they looked like they had been dead awhile.

thanks everyone for the support and offers of more trout, its great to have such great ppl to get my spirits back up again

It would be a tradgedy if that happened to myself or Gnash

Tis ok at the moment, coz i am in boddington - if the fish die it is 'her' fault...which means i would be allowed to get more

my water qualtiy has improved greatly since i have less fish, i can see the bottom, and think i have about 10 fish left. i will press on and take ppl up on their generous offers of fish once i have gb's in place

i got some old pre trout slaying photos, and some recent GB framephotos:

Some nice handywork there Duckpond, you would make a great landscaper!

lol

I reckon if you put a motor in that you would have a kit car with a secure roll cage. Nice mitres!!!!

dont speak too soon Faye , he's already GOT one of those , in the other shed !

lol true, but i need a motor for the dune buggy, and my friend took his Yamaha 750 road bike back so i cant "borrow" it

You planning on filling the growbed with concrete lol, looks like a skyscraper support
