Don't forget that CC are a warm water more southern species and raising them in the north is like growing cotton or tobacco in the north. It can be done but not as well as those in warmer regions with longer growing seasons. Do your homework before proceeding and expecting to feed a family of four every week or two with fish in 0.1ac (60'x60'). It will take special aquaculture methods to maintain water quality and healthy fish. I recommend a heavy fish harvest each fall to reduce fish biomass and reduce chance of fish stresses and loss during winter.
