Iv just been trying to find some info on sleepy cod.

Just wondering if anyone has had any luck with them?

im guessing cannibalism would be an issue.
Not sure about temps?? could they be farmed all year round?
feeding - Live? pellets? BSF? Greens?

Our winters would be too cold for them Jamie. Fish we can keep year round would be silver perch, eel tail catfish and Bass I think, but may be wrong.

Just rang Ben at www.centralvicfreshwaterfish.com.au Jamie and he only has trout yearlings at the moment. He is looking into getting silver perch, catfish and bass next week and will ring me back when he has them, or knows when he will have them.
He is at Maldon so in your backyard eh. Only two hours for me so I hope he gets things up and running.

Or there is:

Its sitting on around 19C but if I took the shadecloth off that half of the greenhouse it would get much warmer.
Will need to get the trout eaten before they can go in there
