The Tilapia's reproduce and grow so fast that all class sizes of bass will benefit. With tilapia averaging growth to 1.5 pounds from an egg in just 6-9 months there will even be a few tilapia that avoid and outgrow the largest of predator gapes to become table fare. Those uneaten become food for turtles, catfish, other aquatic scavengers, or if floating, terrestrial scavengers.
