The question of hot summer stocking of GC has generated some past discussions/disagreements on here. I did some research, on my own in the past, by calling several Texas fish suppliers. Many will not even sell GC in the summer months and caution against handling them during that time. I did find one dealer who was running a "special" on GC during August....but you had to provide all transportation and of course, they would not offer any gurantees under those circumstances.
We are only three months or so away from the time where safer stocking of GC is available. My approach, and I'm not in your shoes obviously, would be to use something like Reward to get on top of some of the worst infestations and then come back with the GC this fall when temps are a little lower.
