In a couple of months my pond will be in it's 5th year. And up until this past year I had very few plants in the pond. But today I have two that have grown quite a bit and will soon need some control or it might get out of hand. After reading much about the grasscarp here, I am not sure that I want them because of biomass and I like the amount of vegetation I have now, I just don't want any more. Anyone with experience with them when it comes to Southern Naiad (bushy Pondweed) and APW. I see where even those that have the carp still spray their weed killers, so are they worth taking up the biomass in the pond? I understand they get pretty big and 10 of them in a 3 acre pond could be a hundred pounds of fish in a few years. If I were to add them? Any thoughts on how many per acre if I wanted to keep the plant life where it is now and just control the new plant growth? Thanks for your thoughts

Do not judge me by the politicians in my City, State or Federal Government.
