Theo,
As I've mentioned previously, I'm running an experiment this year in one pond with a significantly reduced stocking rate...stocking at 2 to 3 pounds per acre vs 10 to 15 pounds per acre in other ponds.
I'm not, however, volunteering to completely stop using Tilapia in any pond. As long as I have ponds and am able, I will have Tilapia in them.
Tilapia: Best pond management tool I have...nothing is even close.
