When I fed the tilapia daily I had a poacher on a regular basis, he sold them to seafood places that dot my neighborhood. Now I feed every other day and the tilapia get very little of the food so their diet is mostly algae as is their body odor and taste. The poacher has stopped or almost anyway. I don't see any difference in fish size with the lack of feeding. I have pacu which are eager eaters, especially when only fed every other day. They keep the tilapia from the food.
George, I would love to try goats but I am afraid of the area dogs, all of which run loose.
