Hi guys. You all have helped me so much already. I recently built an acre pond with the intentions eventually of stocking crappie and bass after i let my FHM population grow. Come to find out some gambusia somehow got into my pond and from what i can tell they are rapidly reproducing like crazy. I can only guess theywashed in from the pond upstream. How will gambusia affect my pond? My pond is very deep and steep on most sides. I will not have alot of shallow areas but there will be some. Are gambusia a species i should create special habitat for in hopes they can survive? Do they hurt my FHM population? Please anyone with experience on gambusia in there pond?


Build it and they will come, whether you want them to or not.
