Thanks ewest, I think I understand what you're saying....that being that he's going to need to manually remove BG, even with HSB present, if he hopes to prevent the BG from overrunning his pond? Assuming that they are stocked together in the same BOW?
If BG and LMB are frequently stocked together at a 10:1 ratio, is there a ratio of BG to HSB that would approximate the same results? Would the number of HSB required to eliminate manually removing BG be feasible for a small BOW where optimal growth of the BG was the goal? Or is it a case of the HSB never being able to control a southern population of native BG?
