So what would a pond manager do to help the tilapia the most for that type of reproduction?
Very best way to help tilapia for the best reproduction is to have no bass or other aggressive larval / small fish eating predators in the pond. The fry once forming all their finage begin eating the smallest "sprout's of algae and forms of filamentous periphyton growth. Loss of high numbers of fry / larvae is a loss of one's algae eating army. Keep the foxes to a minimum or out of the tilapia chicken coop if your main interest is tilapia for algae consumption.
