I agree about your statement on introducing Tilapia into a pond where you're managing for trophy BG. What we did last year was in such a pond we stocked Tilapia that were predominately Male at the rate of 40# per surface acre. Filamentous Algae was controlled, and we didn't seen a larger recruitment of YOY BG from last year vs. the previous years. The pond will get the same treatment this year.
