I'll throw out the first question, because I get asked this quite frequently, and I'll keep it in a more general theme. The 2nd question is more detailed.

Will Yellow Perch and Hybrid Striped Bass grow just as well on regular "general" fish food or should they have food specifically for them?

I know this doesn't apply to a pond setting, i.e. it's hard to know the answer with fish in a pond where they they have natural food to eat, but is there a way to determine how much of the food the fish is actually utilizing and how much of the food (when I say food I mean nutrients in the food) is passing through the fish and is not digestible?
