Stock density must be calculated on filtration volume and only partly water volume. You have 2 halves of a blue drum there... so maybe 180-200L max filtration. We recommend 25 fish per 500L filtration.

Id recommend 8-10 trout yearlings, they eat a lot and grow fast therefore this will push your virgin system.

Stock low and take it slow, your on the back half of winter so get a few trout out of the way and plan for the warmer weather.
