Remainder look active and OK ...

Luckily, these were the second batch.... the first batch that went in two months ago are about 200mm+ ....

Sadly, these were the Nth Coast batch that was intended (partially) for broodstock in 18 months..... gladly, there's still a few decent sized ones amongst the remainder...

Yeah... well last night I was definitely looking at things as the "glass half empty" ...

And filled it up again each time..... :wink:

Today, it's more a glass half full mood.... lost about $70 worth of fish.... gained about $370 worth of lawn mower.... thanks Dad.....

p.s. ... you can see from the differing sizes why I was going to grade them....

Yeah... not beating myself up too much about the power board... never really thought to check the surge button and reset it.... and it was raining too hard for me to even think about running down there anyway...

But not having graded them when I said I was going to... irks me... especially because it would have been done that afternoon anyway... well if it hadn't stormed... :dontknow:

good luck with the cct, was it designed by someone especially with ur system in mind, RCD's - yes good for what they are designed for but on a cct like this one thats so important, I would install a failsafe warning device etc for piece of mind, thoughts?

Be nice Bree... but don't have anything handy...

At least a dedicated circuit and panel gets rid of all the power boards... and even a couple of double adapters .... :oops:

lol sounds a bit like my xmas lights in the yard, power boards taped to posts and green buckets over them
I wouldnt be anything other than nice, wasnt trying to be nasty
Just wondered if u needed help in designing warning devices or anything on a failsafe system, I was offering thats all, but from some of the posts I have seen there are some pretty handy people on this forum
