Pond Boss Forums MANAGING AN EXISTING POND Corrective stocking overnighting fish

I don't think there's anything to be concerned about except whether they are pellet trained, which you want. Identification is foolproof unlike id of a 1" BG or RES!!! But we know all about that, don't we!

You are going to have a heckuva unique fishery down there. I cannot wait to visit soon. When you're up here we have to spend time on my waterfall/pump ideas for pond and eventual home.

I'm keeping the SMB pond ice free all winter if it snows to reduce risk of winterkill. I'm going to keep my fingers crossed I don't have 10 9" SMB that have fattened up at the expense of their brothers and sisters!
