Well...it's supposed to be a HSB...at least that is what I asked for and paid for. There are a total of 8 in my pond, which is a little more than an 8th of an acre.
From what I was told, the pond is too small for them to breed...so wouldn't think it is breeding damage. And they have only been in there for a week.

Are you sure you were not "gifted" one female LMB to help control over population of your BG?
This is common control pactice in my HSB/CNBG pond.
