could u tell me more about the planton thanks
I am assuming you are referring to zooplankton? Zooplankton is a broad categorization spanning a range of organism sizes that includes both small protozoans and large metazoans. It includes holoplanktonic organisms whose complete life cycle lies within the plankton, and meroplanktonic organisms that spend part of their life cycle in the plankton before graduating to either the nekton or a sessile, benthic existence. Although zooplankton are primarily transported by ambient water currents, many have some power of locomotion and use this to avoid predators or to increase prey encounter rate. Most zooplankton is just large enough to be barely seen with the naked eye, but some are quite a bit larger. The smaller zooplankton sizes are the most important for young GSH as they are the size they would be feeding on. A more fertile pond will have a bigger zooplankton population and therefore a bigger and usually healthier fish population.
