Thanks for all the posts everyone. I have managed to save a few of my breeding groups and some growouts. I think the majority of the dying is done. I still lose a fish a day or a few a day but I think it is due to the cold tanks. Currently most of the tanks are around 68 degrees but I can't afford to buy 80 heaters not to mention pay for an electric service to support them all. I have a lot that I quarantined in stand alone tanks with heaters and treated and they are doing great so I posted some for sale on aquabid.com
I haven't heard anything on the test results from the lab yet but I have been a thorn in their side as much as I can be(although they won't even produce a copy of the original test results). They will reimburse me for shipping expenses and replacement of all dead livestock if the water test comes back in my favor. They have been very tight lipped and the DEC doesn't seem to want to get too involved for some reason. It really pisses me off. It's a large gas company and I am a small fish so to speak. My loss is pushing close to $12,000 in dead stock alone and that's not accounting for the fry all my breeding females would have been producing this whole time. Very, very frustrating!!!
My death toll has reached 387 fish.
