Now we are well and truly past the warm summer months and apart from maybe a few more warms days, the weather in the Southern Hemisphere is getting a little chilly. If you have any tropical fish outside, consider bringing them inside and/or installing some water heaters for the fish. Those who’ve barramundi in their Aquaponics setup may consider harvesting them.
The cooler temperatures will have immunosuppressive effects on the fish and succumb to fungal or protozoal, skin or gill diseases. It is best to avoid this.
Can you help me by telling me what your water temperature is right now? Have your barramundi shown any signs of disease yet? I’m keeping a log of this.
