Well, they decided to spawn again after doing a water change today, this is bad news for their tank mates. Spawning Rios are huge sphincters.

My tilapia spawned in my tank.

Haven't had any luck cast netting small bluegill or rios to put in there. How fast do they grow?

Day 3. Almost all my fish have been pushed into 1 corner. 🤬. The 3rd Rio has been taking a beating. I have a Peacock, Black Crappie, 2lb+ BG/Green, a giant Longear, SMB, Warmouth, Guad hybrid and 2 Channels all bigger and all getting bullied.

Anyone need their pond stocked? I’ll siphon them out and donate the adults. This is absurd.

They don’t mess with the Gar, but all the other fish, many bigger, are pushed into one corner.

And every time they spawn, I get this green algae growing on the sand.
