Pond Boss Forums STOCKING A NEW POND Types of fish to choose On Mutt Pond

I stocked some new inhabitants to the pond today in an effort to fortify the forage base. As there are currently thousands of minnows and tiny SFs everywhere in the shallows, I thought this might be a good time to introduce two new species with the existing guys to act as distractions for the newbies.

First pic is a Spotfin Shiner. I apologize for the photo but it wouldn’t hold still! The guy still owes me a partial order so I will try to get a better photo next time and, hopefully, have some aquarium space available by then to keep a couple for a few days.

The second photo are some Bluntnose Minnows. I did put a few of these in an aquarium and will post better photos later.

Both species of fish were mostly in the 3 in+ size so I am hopeful they will spawn this year.
