Yeah, 6 photos of the same growbed, does not make a 6 growbed system :D

I'm off to Fraser range this weekend, I'll probably bring some yabbies back if you want some cross breeders.

Hey troy, hows those yabbies coming along mate? You want to have about a 10-20% load on a piston pump, therefore for an output of around the 70L/m mark would better operate with 2 or 3 20L/m air stones. Its better to run these piston pumps under a bit of load - they are designed to work with back pressure and if you have too free a air flow it will rattle away and shorten its life.

In your case I would use 2 x 20L/m air stones or 4 x 10L/m. Ive got some long cylindrical airstones, Ill try find some info of where I got them for you.

yeah still going great still got 15 out of the original 11 i caught (i still dont know how)
when i want a feed of them i just go to a local farmers house take my kids down there and start to catch these critters with ease.. fortnight ago i took my 10 and 7 year old we were there for approx 45 min and took home around 40 and they were delicious biggest one we caught was 26cm stretched end of claw to tip of tail and the claw meat was fantastic.. :eat:
