Backyard Aquaponics
A place to discuss aquaponics

im looking for a couple of yabbies to help break down the solids in the bottom of my tank. will swap for money or alcohol, or a autographed picture

ps if i get desperate i will go to the AQ shop, but i dont like buying eating fish from there because of the chemicals

I have some but dont think they would survive the trip in the post

You can grab some from us FB... might only be a bit small still, but I'm sure they will grow ok..

Thanks EB, i will be up sunday for some stuff anyway, so will bring a bucket too

Hey FB can we have the alcohol please, don't suppose we will get much for some small yabbies. But if you bring a stubby we can at lease use it as a slug trap, they don't like the light beer though, neither does Joel for that matter. Geez how could have Joel missed your offer, phew luckily I was on the ball

ill bring a bottle of nice vino to the next perth AP get together then you can have your 2 yabbies worth

FB, you should have asked for marron. I know one that is trying to escape from the balcony system.

yeh i had marron, but it escape and the dog tried to eat it

You can have mine FB.

So which one got the blackeye? Dog or Marron??

dog

If the yabbies are to small they might not last long if you have trout in your system.

He's got them now..... Sizes a bit mixed, but none of them very large...

Yabbies will also eat your fish when they are larger, and each other.

Yabbies never get that large in my systems Charlie

Thanks again Joel
