It's taken 4 weeks to cycle fishless with the help of warm weather and some dam water

The Barramundi are in , now for a shade sail and some sort of filter to try and clear the green from the water,

Does anyone have any idea how to clear the water it would be nice to see my fish, or will it slowley clear as the fish might feed of the green slime ?

Hi Greg if you put some sort of lid on your FT and ST that will reduce the amount of algae building up, even a layer of heavy shade cloth would do the job.

Also I don't know if Barra jump out of tanks but that water level is close to the top of your Ft some sort of cover might be handy to keep the fish in the tank.
