I saw one orange one with a brood. Saw a couple of blues and a couple of orange ones picking off a few pellets. FA is about 4' to 5' out from the bank around most of the perimiter of the pond. Maybe more than 15# are needed in my pond?

One factor that might be contributing to the FA is that there aren't any submerged weeds in the pond this year. With the water being so low late last Fall and during the whole winter, I think most of the submerged weeds were killed. Nothing other than the marginal plants and FA to utilize the nutrients.
