90,000 - good work. What would you expect the survival rate to be? What are the main predators for these fingerlings in Kurwongbah? How big were they? (sorry for all the questions)

[rayken1938]

DPI estimate 60 to 80 % survival . Fingerlings were around 2 inches long. Main predators in NPD are tilapia .

Great. Thanks Ray. I assume you got a good price with the fingerlings. Do you want to give the supplier a plug :-)

First 10,000 came from Sunland.
the 90,000 came from Bill Proctor.
