Rainman, Do you think the three foot patches of FA scott69 has floating in his pond are from tilapia eating close to the roots and the patches floating away?? (I have the same)

Also you said that the tilapia are raised on pellets. Are we supposed to quit feeding pellets until they learn to eat FA?

One more thing, Thanks for busting your "B...ass to bring tilapia to the midwest this year!!!!!
