Hey cb100
A lot of folks stock Tilapia in the spring for vegetation control filamentous algae control and table fare, knowing they will die at the end of the summer when the water cools. There are also a lot of folks that stock trout in the fall, knowing they will die the following spring when the water warms.
I considered stocking Tilapia for one year just for fun, but am told it is not legal to stock them in Illinois. CA may also have a restriction.
