I got the OK from Mr. H, my neighbor, to work on rehabilitating his small pond. I plan on ordering Sonar AS for the watermeal, and a bottom diffuser.
Your post is encouraging Bruce, because I would love to get some adult GSF into the pond and see them spawn this year. Is that reasonable for newly introduced fish?
What would be a good goal as far as numbers of GSF to collect for this 1/5 acre pond? It's currently at half of normal pool. I may order 500 Gams to stock and wait for 2 or 3 weeks before adding the GSF. During this time I would begin pellet training the Greenies in a netted area of Mr. H's 7 acre pond. Are the Gams worth it ($100) with that short time frame? Once the GSF are in the pond they will be pellet fed daily. I'm thinking that maybe I should forget about waiting for the Gams to multiply so that I have a better chance of a GSF spawn this year.
