The die when water temps drop below 45 degrees. But before they die they become lethargic and rise to the surface, we went around scooping them out with a net (awesome tasting fillets). The way I looked at it was spend the money in Tilapia or chemicals...The Tilapia is a much better choice . They eat the moss/alge mats like the vegetarians they are and breed like crazy feeding my bluegill and bass!! No downside to them, they breath new life into an old pond for certain!

Now, will those Tilapia be able to survive through an Indiana winter? I thought they were more of a tropical fish.

I'm interested in seeing how this turns out. Hope these guys have you on the right track. If nothing else let's just have a fish fry.
