Pond Boss Forums STOCKING A NEW POND Types of fish to choose Fish for a 1/4 pond...

Here's my $0.02 worth. I think maintenance will be higher with a LMB/BG/CC pond than if you would use Feed Trained HSB/HBG/YP/RES and put a Texas Hunter feeder on the pond, with a Solar electric fence charger around it for bears.

The time you'll spend trying to keep the CC/LMB numbers in check will be greater than the time you spend once a month dumping $35 worth of AM600 in the feeder. All you do is have to keep track of what fish were removed/died during the year and restock that number the following year (HSB/HBG). The other fish will spawn in the pond. Double check on RES. I don't know if you can stock them in Pa. If you can't, then you could stock Pumpkinseeds in that case, although I don't know where to source them from.
