I had a dry pond first of last year no fish no water.I filled the pond from my well last year and added about 1200 Craw fish field run about half as long as your finger 30 POUND sack.The tank is just about 1 surface acre on only 7 feet deep full of weeds and moss everywhere.There are thousands of frogs from 1"- 4". The Craw fish have had baby's. This year on the 30th of March i added 35 2" bluegill and 35 red ear sunfish 2" they all laid eggs. 30 catfish at 3-5" and 6 bass at 4" I have craw fish now that are i guess 6-7 inches wide when they spread there claws to grab you. I cant believe how fast they have grown i have caught 5 bass from13 1/2" to 15" 1 catfish 13" several of the perch were from 5 to 5 1/2" all in my first 2 hour outing how do they grow so fast Thanks please respond David
Use geometry. If it's shaped like a teardrop, similar to a triangle, then it's length x width x .5...so 175 x 75 x .5 = 6,562.5 sq feet/43,560 sq feet per acre = .15 acre.

What about Rock Bass in a pond?
The problem is to many people taking coolers full too many times !!
Haunting theme song. Can I get it on 8 track?
How would I calculate the water anchors of my pond is a irregularly shaped teardrop 175ft by 75ft with being 8 to 10 feet deep

So depth doesn't matter? Narrowest point is 40 ft widest 75
Who around here can I send my water from my pond checked Erie, Mi.
We recommend sending a sample to Texas A&M's soil sciences lab.
