In early May of this year I stocked a batch of GSH (fry), and they seemed to do OK up till about 8 weeks ago. They got to about one inch in length and then seemed to stop growing. This is the first season for my new 1.5 acre pond and there are no other fish in the pond to eat them or thin out the population yet, so i'm wondering if they have run out of natural food to eat? The pond has a lot of algae in it but not much else as far as I can see. My stocking plan was to let these minnows get a good start this season and start stocking some LMB, BG, and maybe some YP next spring. Anyone know how fast the GSH should be for this situation? Any thoughts?
