I have seen the black fly use of unwanted fish and a thread growing monsters with trout pieces. What about grinding or blending fish to feed the forage? I usually just feed the YOY BH to whatever opportunistic shore critter that happens by the pile while I'm gone. Rarely nothing eats them and if so they get pitched into the pond.
Would it be a better use of protein to grind them up and dumped into the pond? I'm currently just pitching BH heads, etc back into the pond which surely only feed the turtles.
