Can any one please tell me the ratio of more fish per acre a pond can hold if aerated with a pump and diffuser.

Roughly another 200# of fish per acremore than a non aerated, non supplementally fed pond. But, that's not a firm number, just a guide.

Cardell I always do my estimates on fish per acre based on acre feet. If a one acre lake has an average depth of 10 ft and a thermocline at 5ft then adding aeration will double the lbs per acre. Now if the average depth is 15 ft with the thermocline at 5 ft aeration would triple the lbs of fish. So if I were you I would figure out your average depth to determine your acre ft then you can determine where the thermocline is and that will give you a good start on an estimate.


Happy Fishing!!
