Do you net or trap the Gambusias? Are they sold commercially? Lake or creeks best?
ahavatsa,
Really it is one of those fish mysteries, but they just show up in just about every body of water in East Texas. I don't know of anyone specifically in Texas selling them, but someone will probably chime in. When I started the TGG experiment, I bought 1000 of them from Deb to get things off to a good start...and a good start happened.
It may be because they are so prolific and self starting that not many people sell them in Texas.
A combination Gambusia/fathead program really gets a pond going...they both serve a good function, in my opinion.
