I guess this is why the 1-3 inch fish are mostly available and hard to find adults.
I guess one could gamble and add 100's if not 1000's of the little critters in hopes some make it.
But then you have the risk of too many making it and not having enough to eat.
I think it would be neat to have an older pond you could raise snails and other clams, etc. for a few years then add RES to it and see how they grow.
Be sure to stock a few CC or SMB to help with the RES spawn.
