Well no trout fr me this year :( I don't have anywhere to store the silvers while the trout are in the main tank. Maybe next year hey :)

Also had to re-plant the system again, all the first seedlings got decimated by caterpillars, so far pulled off about 200 big fat ones. Bloody things

Not a caterpillar problem, a bobtail deficiency!

The latest pics, been working like a dog all weekend an finally the new system is ready to be installed in the new place :)


It will be a single Ibc fishtank with a 90mm SLO split to 2 40mm outlets and draining into about 1500L of gb.

Cleaning the Ibc took about 6 hours, but I got it for the right price so never mind ( thanks Joel/Fay :) )

Use bulkhead fittings for SLO and standpipe. The stand pipes seem a lot more strong so went for that. I want to make this system as hands off as possible so the Missus can take care I it while I'm away.

I'll only run about 10 Sp in it, they're almost pets now so more excited for the veggies than fish

Feed back from those with SLO's ( and everyone) is always welcome :)
