Lilpond, Wait a couple years for tilapia unless you are willing to clean up a lot of dead fish in the fall. FA is pretty normal for freshly built/rebuilt ponds due to the fresh nutrients available. Since your pond will not really be fishable for aat least a couple years, I would let nature do her thing the first two years. If it gets too bad, just rake out some.

More importantly, welcome to PondBoss!

Also, get 10-15 more pounds of Fatheads (FH) fir your LMB and BG...You do realize at 500 FH there was less than a 2 fish average for the LMB and BG to eat right?
