Every situation is different and there aren't any magic pond solutions to everyone's situation...and as you know, we get lots of rain in East Texas.
Having said that, I'm still amazed at the outright disbelief at what I have seen and actually experienced. It doesn't sell chemicals and doesn't necessarily confirm the great theories of Pond management, but for me and my ponds Tilapia works, big time.
Yes, I saw visible evidence of reduced pond bottom biomass. Better yet is the scientific study that showed in Egypt, that Tilapia reduced the bottom layers of silt by "2 to 3 inches per year".
I guess if I was selling these things or had a relationship with someone who is doing so, I could understand the disbelief...but it isn't so. I only wrote what I saw in hopes that others could also experience these benefits. If folks choose to not believe, then so be it. They are missing out on a great pond management tool.
