This is my WAG but I wonder if the fry would handle the high water temps and then you'd lose the fish as they got older. I'm kind of experimenting with the same issues here regarding tiger muskie, and from what I can tell I think I'll be able to get 2-3 seasons out of them and then lose them due to water temps as they get bigger. I believe their DO demand increases as they get older and the larger fish tend to seek cool water refuge with high DO. Just my thoughts.
