Fish Stocking
Our
company can provide you with a variety of fish stocking
options to suit your particular needs. Some situations may
require the installation of an herbivorous fish to control
algae or unwanted plant growth, or perhaps you are interested
in stocking your lake with game fish. Whatever your fish
stocking needs we have the licenses, tools and resources
to get the job done. Below are some examples of the fish
we are able to provide for you. |

An excellent choice
for constant control of vegetation in your pond. Be warned
that a state permit is required to possess or stock these
fish. If your lake has a required littoral (planted area)
the state may deny any permit. Aquatic Consulting will assist
you through the entire process from achieving a permit to
building and installing containment barriers until final
delivery of your hungry new carp; we are there every step
of the way. Although these fish require some additional
legwork we have found the results to be well worth the trouble,
quite simply lakes with grass carp remain cleaner and more
beautiful than their counterparts. If you are
tired of unwanted lake vegetation please call for a free
analysis of your pond, to see if Grass Carp are right for
you. |

A vegetarian like the Carp this
fish will constantly nibble on algae in your lakes. Although
they prefer planktonic (blue/green) algae, the Tilapia will
also nibble on filamentous algae mats as well as duckweed
and other small floating plants. Since no permit or other
hassle is required tilapia are a relatively easy and inexpensive
method of algae control. A small population of these fish
will quickly breed into a large colony of algae eaters.
Take note that tilapia may tend to crowd out game fish such
as largemouth bass, therefore they may not be a good choice
for some applications. |

We can bring a pond
from sterile to fertile by stocking a mixture of local game
fish. If you have a new pond or want to increase your game
fish populations we can bring your pond back to life. A
typical stocking consists of equal parts largemouth bass,
bluegill, channel catfish and minnows to act as a food source.
Due to their spawning cycle largemouth bass fingerlings
are available only in late April, all other fish are available
year round. We can also provide adult largemouth bass in
the .5 to 4 Lb range, these Bass are generally available
year round. If you would like a customized game fish stocking
plan for your pond please call and set up a free survey
of your site, we will happily meet with you to discuss your
options. |
