I have a brand new pond with just FHM in it right now, and the duck ponds are weed choked, so if I get another shot at PK shrimp, I'll try those.

PK shrimp should survive in a fishless pond and IMO they should survive well in a FHM pond especially if the FHM pond has some structure algae or shallow vegetation shoreline plants. Over crowded FHM might prevent PK shrimp from thriving. PK shrimp might not survive well in a pond with abundant shiners because shiners have a larger mouth to eat larger hatchling - young PK shrimp.

Pond has no plants, algae, or structure yet, but has a large wetland attached which should grow lots of plants. Pond was just finished last fall. Is there now a commercial supplier of PK shrimp for Indiana?
