Angela gray replied to Angela gray's discussion Jumping back into it! in the group Aquaponics Adventures"Thanks for the replies. Andrew, you said you started with 25 fish. Was that in an IBC? Just wondering how many fish to get. What size do you start with?"
Andrew Cumberland replied to Angela gray's discussion Jumping back into it! in the group Aquaponics Adventures"You and Colin are welcome to visit and have a look at my set up, anytime you like. "
Andrew Cumberland replied to Angela gray's discussion Jumping back into it! in the group Aquaponics Adventures"Angela - I agree with Rob. Silver perch seem to be picky eaters. We are just a touch cold for Barra.

Rob Collings replied to Angela gray's discussion Jumping back into it! in the group Aquaponics Adventures"Great news Angela. I've only kept Jade Perch in aquaponics. I have found them easy to raise and great to taste."

Jumping back into it!
Hello,I set up an IBC earlier in the year which was going really well. I didn't have fish ( just gudgeons) as winter was coming on and no one had fish stocks apparently. Anyway..

Well, it's been running & syphoning etc. I initially planted lots of veg which grew amazingly well.winter was a bit slow, & I've been away, But I'm ready to jump in & get my fish now I'm home again & it seems the right time to do it.…See More

- Dave & I did a workshop on Sunday with Brisbane backyard bees. Fantastic workshop learning about top bar beehives. Hoping to get one in spring. I'd recommend his workshop to anyone interested in beekeeping. Fun & informative.
