Now I buy fish from fish farms and they seem to grow faster and it take less time to stock the ponds and cheaper in the long run. If you know what I mean.


I'll bet part of the reason why fish farm stocked fish grow faster is that they are younger than wild caught fish of the same size. Better & more regularly fed.
