So far my yellow perch that have been released in the horizontal aeration pond (Coulee), have been thriving. They voraciously consume pellets and some are as big as 8.5 inches.
My water temperatures are 71.5 F. and rising. I'm adding 16 gpm of well water to buffer, but I know at some point I'm going to have to crank the well up to keep the perch from dying.
Does anyone know at what point a yellow perch starts to stress, and then die, as far as water temps are concerned??
Cecil??? Hint, hint....
