[quote=benj Kind of wanted to no how well they grow. Has anyone tried the winter kind of Tilapia? My local fishery says they have them and do they die when it gets warm?

Say what???? confused

You may want to call him again and ask him what species does that. Please write it down, and ask him the scientific name for it. I sure would like to know!

As far as I know, they prefer warm to hot water, as they are native to the Africa, and don't do very well in water temps less than 55�F
