Doing some pond spring cleaning on the weekend, found a plague of Blue Acaras in one, got a heap for free last year and used them for feeders. Bastards survided and bred in an un heated pond through winter ?

i spoke to a bloke that went to a barra cage farm in the hintchinbrook before the cyclone smashed it up.
he said they had been throwing the white barras in a pen, they had gold and also some that looked like cows. i guess most of em escaped.

lots of barra around the 58cm mark when i was there a month back. which i guess came from the cages but maybe not. but they looked skinny in the belly area but they had just gone through winter.. one guy told me he had seen some of the cow looking colour morphs from the pens sitting under cover of logs, banks etc in the months after the cyclone.

By cow looking ones I assume you're talking 'bout piebalds ;) I'd imagine most of the oddball morphs would have got picked off quickly by crocs and the like, bit opf a wastge but what can you do. Not my cup of tea anyway.
