Bill, I meant a method to control potential CC populations assuming that the CC's were able to spawn.

I did not know if RES or adult CC would eat CC frye and/or juveniles.

I think you may have identified the magic ingredient for success being a secondary non-reproducing predator like one sex of LMB or maybe HSB.

The secondary non-reproducing predator would have to be effective at feeding in all areas of a pond to prevent recruitment.

"She took another microscopic bite of her sandwich, then pushed it away. Maybe she absorbed nutrients from her surroundings."
