So I've had to drive to the opposite end of the island this weekend to book into hotel with decent WiFi 😂🤣😂. Feels like I'm actually back in Sierra Leone BEFORE the network was upgraded out there. So Peter has had to take these trips for the 3rd time now (8hr round trip) to come to this farm to get breeder fish.... We getting twice as many this time round . First lot we got females and males. Second trip just the males.... This one both again (just in case) 🤣😂😂😂. We have insulated the breeding station and turned it into a 'hot box'. So we should get better heating in there now. We have dug the well DEEPER and shored it up even more( another precautionary measure in case the rains are delayed.... ). The filtration tanks are going to be used properly, I've made sure of it . They were completing getting them ready last night. I'll post videos once Peter gets them sent later of the finished cycle system set-up. It's all hands on deck guys....... So we have 3 different breeding sources now all from different farms around the country. We will try all 3 this time round and Betsy gets a turn as well 🙌🙌. Today is going to be a busy day so had to be reachable so I could make sure nothing is missed this time round.... LETS GOOOOO!!!!!

So this network nonsense is persisting on these islands. During the day, coverage is poor to nonexistent and then I get back to the flat and it's hit and miss with the broadband 😞😞. Bare with me guys, I'll get this nut cracked one way or another.....🤔🤔

Hey guys... More set backs afoot. So we learned last time that we needed to suspend the eggs, ✅. We did that. We needed to warm up the water source, ✅ we thought we got it , but crucial mistep was keeping the entire thing constant throughout the night. We didn't put enough measures in place, so back to the drawing board... The eggs are dying... FAST Another lesson hard learned. The eggs did turn on us quite rapidly white this time round(the temperature has gone down significantly already this April, so we knew April was not good for THIS... buuuuut... Stubborn me tried anyways 😂🤣😂😂. This week we set about trying to fix heating up the nursery guys. Anyone have any clever suggestions to heat up water without electricity at night? The Solar will be a few weeks before we can ship them... need to maximise space in container(it's not cheap) So till then......My first thoughts is trying some kind of water heat exchange contraption??? Get some steel drums heat up the water over charcoal and introduce it slowly into the tanks during the night?? Anyone else think of a plan??? Also, we have some pesky fire ants on the rampage making our black soldier fly colony their free buffet. Anyone know of non toxic ways to keep those chaos away? Lets get these fish bred... I'm not taking defeat laying down🤣😂😂😂

Lets all welcome @Simon Nelson to the crew guys . Feel at home and ask as many questions as you like Simon. We are trying to be as interactive as possible in here so we can create something really useful and special 😁🤗🎉.
