I believe the only requirement is an esky with a minimum capacity of 25 litres. How you keep the fish alive is up to you. Some have gone away from electrically operated livewells and just fill the esky, then use a hand bilge pump to change the water occasionally.

At the last ABT, I only had 2 fish in my esky, but they survived all day in the 35* heat and I all did was change some of the water in the esky every half an hour, using a cut down OJ container.

How much you spend is up to you.
