Barramundi Bretto's Pics

[BARRAMUNDI BRETT'O]

Hello there,here's a few more pics.I picked the filter up for $10 at the tip shop,the stuff they have been using in them is a carconagenic and will soon be banned in oz.I took out the filter bars and filled the bottom half up with the insides of the pillows in our spare bedrooms(the missus is gonna kill me)and put a couple of rocks on top ,the difference in the colour of the water is over a 2 hour period,in about 2500L FT.I have had good growth in the 4 grow beds i planted out last sat,the tomato was rescued from the compost heap.The water should be crystal clear in the morn ,i'm very happy and will put some gold fish in next monday. bye all Brett

Hi Brett,

The greenhouse looks great. On the matter of fruiting plants, can bees get inside the greenhouse? No bees (or similar insects) = no fruit.

Hi Garry,one whole side and one end of the greenhouse is open so insects can come in ,shade cloth covers one side to keep out our hot sun.I dont see to many bees lots of horrible grass hoppers though,I am considering a native bee hive very soon. Bye Brett

Hi Brett,



.....dont see to many bees lots of horrible grass hoppers though,I am considering a native bee hive very soon.

The native bee hive sounds like a great idea......and 'round here grasshoppers are called fish food.
