    That’s so good to know! I may give raising them a try.

    Thanks! Me and my dad have been going to fish and we spend so much money on buying new minnows!!!
  • @jonneely3967

    Cool video. This is motivating. I’d like to raise minnows to feed to our livestock. Be well. - Colin

    thanks for the video. Very informative I'm planning on raising minnows and duckweed for more self sufficient chicken and duck feed

    I have similar size pond but only 2.5ft deep. There are about 24 rosy red minnows, spawning hundreds right now. But the problem is most of them got eaten by the tilapia. The largest tilapia I have is about 7 inches, what is the largest you have in this pond? It amazes me that they can get along. I also have prawns in the same pond that seems to eat tilapia. Daily floating pellets, some fruit peels, and carrot peels, but no grass cutting like you described.

    Id have to raise native species to my area to legally fish with them. Looking to start breeding emerald shiners

    I have rosy reds! We are turning our pool into a pond and I got them so our frogs would eat them instead of our goldfish. Wanted to know how to make it easier for them to spawn since a pool has smooth sides with no hiding places. I do have many floating planters with lots of hanging roots so maybe that's enough. Thanks for your videos!

    If you have plants that are going in the water especially native species that can sometimes be rooted in the resivior as well as the soil around the structure, well that's natured natural air stone

    Thinking about floating a 275 gallon container in my pond for breeding sanctuary
  • @Fishkinz
    can we get a video of fishing with the rosy reds?
