Pond Boss Forums STOCKING A NEW POND Types of fish to choose Finally, I have fish in my pond

Optimal BG Jr is a relatively large pellet for 1" BG. Three good options as I see it. 1. Build yourself some sort of floating feeding ring to contain the pellets while they soften and before the pellets float to shore where much of it decomposes and grows nuisance FA algae. Plus this will help train the fish for the location of the feeding station. 2. Spend some time crushing or grinding the Optimal Jr into smaller size crumbles so the 1" BG can grasp and swallow the food. 3. Try softening some of the food 1-2hrs prior to feeding the fish. The soften food will will allow the BG and minnows to more quickly pull off bits of pellet they can easily consume.
