Easy...stock them, feed them, catch them, eat them, restock them. Not complicated or pushed from the fish dealer.
Todd,
Forgive me for I am still learning here, but does the above statement hold true with any fish versus biomass, or is it only a HSB thing? I am trying to ascertain how feasible it is when stocking general ponds, and how much upkeep is required per lbs per acre per species.
Thanks
