I would go to the servo and purchase those ice bags maybe two and in the meantime start freezing large ice blocks for the fish tank over night. You might want to go to the LFS purchase a chiller if its in your budget.
Quen - There has been a long debate whether you are allow to keep asians/silvers in Australia. The verdict was that you are allowed to keep them because they are not on the noxious list (currenlty on the grey list), you are just not allowed to import them from overseas. Whether you are allowed to sell them like many LFS here in Sydney, i dont know.

Silver are noxious in Victoria.

Quen - I forgot that it is a state law. Yes it is on the noxious list in Vic and not in NSW from my understanding even though Vic is a cooler state.
*update*
cooler change happened over the weekend ... alls good now an its back 2 normal at 29degrees and eating fine.. vic is meant 2 be cooler but over the last few years the summers are getting hotter n hotter... I have a number of plastic coke bottles with frozen water all ready just in case..... looks like it aint going 2 get any cooler anytime soon.
