HSB and LMB are compatable in a one acre pond. Feeding them artificial pellets helps boost growth and carrying capacities of the pond. Bruce has quite a bit of experience raising HSB at higher densities. I am not sure what the largest size they obtained for him; my HSB got to 27" before I renovated the pond.
