I live in zone 7, and want to stock my new 60 ft round pond with edible food { but not fish} Pond is around 6-7 ft deep .
Can anyone recommend a certain species of large crayfish , crabs, freshwater mussels, etc that would survive and reproduce year round in my temperature zone/ pond type ? I want the pond to supply me with edible food but did not want to start with fish as my 1st choice.
Ive read some freshwater pond owners had success even raising saltwater blue crabs in their ponds.
Heres a photo of my pond...its new , so its still murky and not filled to the top yet.
