Its too bad GAMs don't get much bigger than 1.5", at least in my pond anyway. They sure are prolific fish. No matter how hard my BG and GSF hammer on them, they always seem to be able to survive. The GSF seem to be done spawning now, with only a few BG still tending nests at the moment, and I have fry everywhere. The GAMs are mixed right in with them and seem to love the feed as much as the rest. I've been hydrating the feed and they gang up to chisel away at the soft edges.

Do GAMs feed on the smallest of the fry or are they primarily larval feeders? Either way, they sure do like pellets.
