Pond Boss Forums AQUATIC VEGETATION Controlling unwanted plants talapia for filamentous algae control in Michigan

My ~2 acre pond has a lot of FA, and grass carp are illegal in Michigan.

Talapia appear to be legal in Michigan.

A few questions:

Our winters get very cold with lots of ice, will the talapia have to be restocked every year?

Is anyone using them in MI?

Where do you get them and what is the average cost?

Any reviews on the success using them to control FA?
