2 mortalities
The two jumpers from yesterday floating on the surface at the evening checkin. That sucks. The smaller one was partially eaten, indicating that the fish are eating. This is a good thing.
Plants in the gravel grow bed are good. Plants in the dwc bed are not. I think they need more aeration.
I am one fish death away from believing that a leachant from the barrels is causing my fish deaths. The fish are healthy and feeding well inside, but outside they go off feed, and die within a couple of weeks. Perhaps I should define an interim stage between this year's project and next years, with a different primary tank and growbeds.
I am not going to move any more fish outside until i get the water clear and a couple of weeks with no deaths.
