If you have a healthy small bass population is there a big downside to having greenies in a sunfish pond? If so, what are they? I've read the bass will outcompete them so if there a few genes to hybridize what would be the overall effect? Also, I noticed some redbreast in my stock with the little bit longer ears that are very round like a bluegill. Will they interbreed with the other species??? I am sure of haveing a majority of cnbg then some redears, a few greenies, and a few redbreasts. I stocked some small greenies before I knew what I was doing:( but some appear to be of the opinion that this is not neccesarily a bad thing. I'd like to hear what you guys think so I know what I should do.
