I intend to leave the albinos in to see how big I can grow them. As for the 65 regular channels I stocked, the plan is to catch most of them out as soon as they reach a good eating size. I am hand feeding morning and evening, what they will consume in about 10 minutes, a mix of catfish pellets and optimal, until the half bag of pellets is gone, then it will be all optimal sunfish food, since the BG eat alongside the CC. Some of those regular CC are considerably larger than others already; I guess they are "shooters". I really don't know how many survived the winter; I found nearly dead 6" one in Feb, that later died.
