Had to look up RBT. I may have to look around and see if I can find a few. How many do you stock in a 1 ac pond? What are possible side effects? Decreased numbers of GSH, and smaller YP would be my guess.
Will the RBT hit top water in the winter? When do they have to be harvested, in order to avoid them dying from warmer waters?
What length RBT did you stock, to already have fish large enough to harvest? Or do RBT survive year round in your BOW?


9 yr old pond, 1 ac, 15' deep.
RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (going away), SMB, and HSB (only one seen in 5 yrs) Restocked HSB (2020) Have seen one of these.
I think that's about all I should put in my little pond.
