+1 Sparkie. I also use supplemental feeding to improve growth of whatever fish in the pond want to eat some. I think it is a great tool. I hand throw the pellets cause I just get a kick out of watching them feed!

I have been on the forum several months now and have seen several stocking recommendations like " You can stock a 100 of them , but if you stock pellet trained fish, you can put in 300." What does the guy that stocked at a capacity based on pellet feeding do when the pellet supply is suddenly shut off? Will his fish continue to survive?
