If we can assume(yeah, I know) that bullhead fry conduct themselves like CC, they should. CC fry go everywhere in a slow swimming school and are easy picking for larger predators. And, in a pond, everything larger is a predator without respect to species.
It is very unusual for CC to be a self sustaining species due to predation. Even when I've stocked only CC, they have never pulled off a spawn. They are essentially a put and take fish. In the presence of bass of any size, small cats are groceries.
It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
Without a sense of urgency, Nothing ever gets done.
Boy, if I say "sic em", you'd better look for something to bite. Sam Shelley Rancher and Farmer Muleshoe Texas 1892-1985 RIP
