If you clicked, you probably know about Grass Carp and their use in ponds for vegetation control. I got 3 from a Dunn's Fish Farm truck about 4-5 years ago for my pond. I imagine they are dead now. At any rate, my main pond is getting too much vegetation in it. For a year, I've been trying to remember to get some more grass carp.
I've called and emailed Dunns about 3 times, trying to get on the mailing list, so I could catch up to one of their route trucks. Never have got a newsletter. So I think I am going to just drive the 1-1.5 hours down to Fittstown (S of Ada) and pick me up some.
Now, last time I had read about some folks getting too many, and the fish eating up too much habitat, and got paranoid. The pond in question is around 3/4 an acre, depending on the level. Right now it is full. The kid on the truck told me to get 4-5, I got 3, and never noticed any decrease. Maybe they just held it at bay.
Anyone use these fish for weed control with any success? Got to get on the ball, I also read to stock them by April.
