With BG and CNBG, I've been told to stock only very limited number of adults (maybe 5 to 10) in a forage pond. Apparently greater numbers will tend to eat too many of the YOY for max production overall.
HBG may be a different kettle of fish (sorry for pun!) due to lower fecundity. Anyway, this year I stocked only 6 CNBG, 3 male 3 female. We'll see how it goes.
