I have an 1.5 acre pond, constructed last summer, stocked with 800 CNBG, 200 Redear, 100 feed- trained LMB, and 10# FHM, and vertex aeration... Began feeding this spring after stocking the feed-trained LMB with great results, from both BG and LMB, but during the last month the action has been nonexistent, with the exception of a noticeably huge increase in the FHM population. They are the only thing touching the feed.
I'm new to managing a pond and just wondering if I could get some advice on steps I should take to correct any problems, or simply ease my mind that this is typical behavior during the hottest weeks of the summer.
