Todd,
Thanks for the info. I get it.
The basic plan is to hold some fish over for the winter so we can restock the ponds in the spring.
Secondly, I would also like to spawn a group of fish for the grow-out ponds. So, I think it is time to set up the aquariums. We have two readily available and we did get fry powder to try this with. I have no idea if it will work or the numbers we might get, but learning is about to happen again!!!
