Yep, welcome to PondBoss.

In a pond intended solely for food production during a survival situation, I would want species and strains best suited for my geographic location.

CNBG are a subspecies of northern strain bluegills. Either one would work in your location, but CNBG are often reported to grow faster than northern strain fish...a distinct advantage I might think. Of course, if the calamity involves a dramatic shift in the weather patterns, and Texas begins experiencing vastly colder than normal winters, well..... grin

I would probably go with a local, reputable supplier, who is familiar with the growing conditions in your area.

Personally, I would stock CNBG and northern strain LMB.

If we accept that: MBG(+)FGSF(=)HBG(F1)
And we surmise that: BG(>)HBG(F1) while GSF(<)HBG(F1)
Would it hold true that: HBG(F1)(+)AM500(x)q.d.(=)1.5lbGRWT?
PB answer: It depends.
