How many Fry?

by Phil S

Hi everybody,
I was wondering if anyone can help me with a little query about fry.

I have at the moment 10 x 250 gallon tanks linked to a Nexus 300 Easy, 4 pumps, 3 60ltr air pumps, 4 KW heater with a 250 gallon tank for water polish before distribution.

My question is how many fry do you think I could cope with taking into account culling, all my tanks will be interior netted so that retrieval of the fish will be easy.

I was looking at keeping around 3’000 to start with and of course ending with the residual after the culls. I will of course be moving fish on to larger residencies when needed but I would like to draw on your experiences with a view to percentage survival rates.
