Guys - RW are generally developed (data used for RW platform) for wild fish (not fed pellets). So add that to the mix when assessing your fish. That is important for HSB because, unlike other pond predator fish, HSB can metabolize the carbs in fish food. HSB can become morbidly obese from carbs in pelleted fish food. A good example is the HSB in some of the Bass Pro aquariums. Their biologist noted this some years back and verified that was the issue.
Great information, I guess its a good thing the HSB in my pond aren't overly obese.
Maybe i'm wrong but I don't think the SMB and LMB in my pond are eating many, if any of the pellets,
I observe them hanging out around the edges picking off minnows as they eat the dust.
