Harvested 3 of my Jade Perch yesterday.

Been picking heaps of beans from my first system, needs a about a 30% water change though the ammonia is spiking with the fish getting bigger.

Those look great! Your system is inspiring. I'm off to look for more on your website.

Very cool project. :cool:

What do the perch taste like mon?

muskymojo · Mar 8, 2011

Maybe if you grew herbs, you could harvest herb-infused perch. :lol:

Now THAT would be cool.

It was okay Nova, probably not as good tasting as a saltwater fish. Just have to experiment with how to cook it.

Yep, we got the herbs going as well maybe next time I'll do a herb mix to cook. Still got 7 fish to harvest, I'll let them grow out a bit more I think.

I caught a big bass out of a muddy dam once and cooked it up, it tasted like mud lol. Your perch probably taste like duckweed

j/k Try battering fillets and deep frying.

That's what I meant in my last post. You could harvest fish ALREADY herb-infused, but I was kidding anyway. Deep fried fish of any kind is pretty good too.

Don't mind me, I a bit slow sometimes. It could work they like to eat most green leafy stuff.
