Thank you for expanding. I see now that you didn't first produce a crop of BG. Have you considered doing that before adding predators once the crop of BG has reached a desired relative size? Reasons to consider doing that is to free one from having to add/buy additional forage and growing a nice crop of small to intermediate BG forage at the end of the grow out. I don't think that would be exceptionally difficult to do nor require deep thought. But it would make sense if both of those reasons were a desired outcome for you.
