Packaging
For your convieniance, fingerlings are packed in bags with oxygen. 200 fingerlings can be packed per bag and they will be safe for several hours for the journey home if kept cool and out of the sun. We reccomend that you bring an esky to freight your fish home. Eskies can be purchased on site.
Delivery
A reliable overnight courier service is available to major regional centres. We regularly freight live fish to all parts of Eastern Cost of Australia (Sydney - MacKay) via this overnight service. Please make enquires with the office.
Releasing your Fish
Care should be taken when releasing fish into your dam. We recommend that you float the bag of fish in the dam, preferably in the shade, for at least 15 minutes to ensure the temperatures in both the bag and dam are the same. Open the bag and slowly let dam water in until the bag is full and release the fish. This process is called acclimation and will ensure survival of your fish.
PLEASE NOTE: It is an offense to stock non-endemic species into your dam. To find out what species of fish you can stock please refer to the QLD Department of Primary Industries website: http://www2.dpi.qld.gov.au/fishweb/1261.html
