It seems that many people report poor PS recruitment in their ponds.
If PS and BG are in the same pond, might this partly explain the apparent poor recruitment of pure PS? PS are NOT colony spawners like BG, so to keep a population going in a pond you need a lot of spawning real estate for PS. At least that is how they spawn in a local lake. Also, a PS male makes a nest that is MUCH larger than a BG nest. I would say the PS nest diameter is around 8x to 12x the body length of the male PS.
