Triploid Grass Carp

Triploid grass carp have been imported to the United States and are raised here for the  purpose of aquatic weed control. Triploids are sterile, and each fish has been individually tested before final sale.

Grass carp are a great tool for management of submerged aquatic weeds like hydrilla, bushy pondweed, coontail, and other soft-tissue species.

They are not a good choice for most floating weeds, shoreline emergent weeds, or filamentous algae.  
Stocking of grass carp requires a permit from the Texas Parks & Wildlife.

The TPWD currently allows the stocking of up to 10 grass carp per surface acre. We stock the 12"+ size triploid grass  carp, but smaller grass carp are also available.

Mozambique Tilapia

Mozambique Tilapia are the only species of tilapia that are legal to stock in private impoundments in Texas without a permit. These fish are  a control option for several types of nuisance aquatic vegetation.  

They will help to control the following species at adequate stocking rates:

  • Duckweed
  • Watermeal
  • Mosquito Fern
  • Filamentous Algae (Pond Scum)

The beauty of these fish is that they will essentially convert nuisance aquatic growth to fish weight and become part of the food chain for top-end predators like largemouth bass, catfish, etc.


Need Mozambique Tilapia?

Carefully consider your source for premium quality, true genetics, solid reputation, and hands-on experience.  Whether you’re looking to optimize forage production, control algae/duckweed/etc, or add variety to your fishery, choose the best supplier and you will experience the best results!

We are the leading producer of Texas-raised, mixed-sex, Mozambique Tilapia. We offer mature adult breeders for spring/summer stocking, as well as fall-fingerlings for late season stocking. 

From our farm to your fishery, via pick-up at our live fish market or delivered direct by one of our live-haul trucks, we are very proud to provide you with our unique Mozambique Tilapia, the result of more than 10 years of selective breeding and hard work.
