Pond Boss Forums STOCKING A NEW POND Creating the food chain Stocking rates when tank is only half full.

Are there other ponds close by? If so, have they stayed full or does the level bary quite a bit? If they bounce around, you might have too many fish if the level drops again. If it'll stay full, and you don't want to wait the 1-2 years for the fish to reproduce and fill up the space, then I'd stock again, being careful to stock the right sized fish (fingerlings might become expensive fish food for the current residents).
