I thought I read that tilapia can be harvested in 3 months? if that is the case, we would harvest before cold weather sets in. If it's not the case, I guess we would be looking into a heater for part of the pond? As far as ducks, I've read ducks provide good surface aeration, and provide fish "food"... as well as fertilizer for the pond. Do you think that is possible? Hoping to figure out how to create a good balance of fish, ducks, plants... and make it work... HOPING!
