They seem to be thriving. Last spring I put 500 BG and 250 shellcracker in the pond that was never stocked before. They were feed most of the year. They slowed down eating when it got cold, but now are back up to eating a quart of feed per day. Last year the bearm spawned at least 2x and now it'm still seeing lots of those fish, but they're bigger 2" - 3". I see lots of the stocked fish that are about 7" - 8" long and getting a bit deeper too now say about 4" - 5". The biggest are a more copper/gold color and I think those are the Shellcrackers.
