WOW! I am gone for 2 days and already three pages!
Just to clarify, i believe that the fish that i am referring to is the Gambusia Affinis, also know as the western mosquito fish. I am sorry if i caused confusion because i didnt clarify.
The main issues/concerns that i have with introducing gambusia are:
1. Do Gambusia Minnows eat Fathead minnow eggs/fry?
2. If they DO is it a significant amount?
3. Do Gambusia Minnows and Fathead minnows compete for the same spawning grounds, and food.
4. Would have been about spawning numbers, but thanks to Ewest and several others that has already been resolved.
Right now I am leaning towards not stocking gambusias and instead revamping my Fathead minnow spawning structure.
Thanks - Jighead
