This is my 12 year experience in a one acre pond until a winter fish kill. I stocked LMB, BG, FHM, CC, 20 KOI, 18 GC, 6 Israeli carp. At the end of the 12 years I had no LMB of any size and I had very few minnows and not a lot of BG. I fed my fish only a handful of pellets everyday so I pretty much knew what and how many I had. I had my KOI named and knew each one on them. At the end of the 12 years I still had 20 KOI and no spawns that survived. I would guess I had 20 CC, and the original 18 GC and the 6 Israeli carp. These fish were huge. The KOI looked to be 20 inches/10-15 lb and the CC about the same. The Israeli in the 20 lb range and the GC were huge, I would guess some were 3 foot long and maybe 30 lbs. My dog and other animals feasted on the bones scattered all over the area for a long time. I considered this pond self sustaining with very little care and looked good. It was somewhat turbid but not excessively so. This pond had virtually no FA while ponds in the area were fighting FA all the time.
