Weissguy,

If youre serious about your design study, I've got 10 "pits" (8'x 25'X 2') that each hold 2250 gallons. We could easily pull a few LMB out of the lake and I would assume you have a few Tilapia to experiment with. My only concern is the fact that the pits are covered and would have very little productivity (but would also isolate any outside variable-predation). My other concern is the issue of getting LMB to take to pelleted feed. We always had a hard time at the hatchery.
