Tilapia will not eat small fish unless nothing else is available . Since you have FA don't worry about tilapia eating fingerling stockers. Number of tilapia is dependant on amount of algae and how fast you want it gone. IMO 10-15 6"-8" tilapia will eventually take care of your FA problem esp if you provide a little help removing some of it. Don't look for big improvement until mid-late July.
