Fishing rods are OK by me , better get your own bait though . I do have a few mullet you can chop up , also if any of you have a fold down crab pot at home bring that along as well We might be lucky to snag a crab or two for lunch

Nolan I think bubs will be ok without a jacket but you will have to keep a close eye on her. meanwhile I will see if I can borrow one or two from someone on the jetty, anyone else have one /two year old let me know!

Now guys there is a fair chance that the boat will still be a work in progress after its refit ($ 15,000 00 so far.) Just about every thing is done except the painting other wise the boat is seaworthy to all extent.

The boat will be put back into the water tomorrow at 4 and we should be tied up by 6pm

I'll see what we can do Bob but there's only one place down the coast I know where Jacks hang out, it's near Ephraim Island :encouragement:

Ziek/Wayne,

Did you want to post the confirmed attendance sheet and what people need to bring? I take it that life jackets are not compulsary for adults?

Anyone bringing a camera?

      One interesting thing he mentioned was "Bacteria pressure", which I guess just means number of bacteria around.  Yet I see all these other videos from shrimpkeepers bragging about how much bacteria their filtering system holds. Also interesting is no mention of using anti-biotics to treat bacterial infection.  I think that has fallen out of favor recently.

      It has been a few weeks now and I have done a couple of large water changes. I tested the water parameters this morning, GH6 and KH2, TDS 140 and PH 7.5. Obviously the PH is off but there isn't anything in the tank that should cause the PH to rise to this figure so I will just run the tank for another month with 10% weekly water changes (probably just with RO water) and see where we are at that point. The RO water tests at PH6, and the KH and GH in the tank could come down as they are at the upper limits for Caridina shrimps! There are only about 10 very small snails in there at this point, but they seem to be doing well enough.

      I believe these to be very rare in Australia so you may even consider making it a longer term plan and produce your own by starting with the best CRS you can get as that is where the pure lines started! Depends how patient and interested in the project you are, but would save money as well? If I recall correctly it takes from 8 generations of selective breeding? They sell them at micro aquatic shop but do not ship to Western Australia, but that means they are available in Australia. https://microaquaticshop.com.au/products/pure-red-line-grade-ss-shrimp Good luck and just maybe smeone on here may point you in the right direction or be able to supply you with some.
