Pond Boss Forums STOCKING A NEW POND Types of fish to choose Speckle Belly sunfish pond

You will probably not get predation from HSB like you would from LMB. They will certainly love eating pellets. But I would not stock HSB big enough to eat your BGxRES fingerlings.

The rule of thumb for LMB is that they will eat sunfish up to 1/3 their own length. HSB, having smaller mouths, might be able to eat sunfish 1/5 their own length (SWAG).
