Filled Tanks 1 & 2 (3300l ea)

In preparation for our 'Trout Season' Tanks 1 & 2 were filled from our rainwater tank. The tank was close to full and rain is predicted???? This leaves us vulnerable if good rain does NOT fall soon! Thanks to Peter, Corey & for their work in the ARC?
At 24C the water is too warm for the introduction of Trout. We are waiting for the water temperature to fall and stay below 18C before the Trout are sourced from Ebor. We are investigating methods to artificially cool the water to extend the total growing season.
