Hi Kiefer,
you are lucky if you have a pond in which the plancton is allright and THERE ARE NOT PREDATORS! If so, I think you can take your fry to the pond as soon as possible. The only reservation is that will be more labour intensive to cacht them later for culling purposes.
I'm having some trouble keeping all the fry in the pools inside the greenhouse. Density is very high in one of them. Water temperature has reached 25 celsius degrees already. I have had filtration stoped in previous days, but today nitrite was rising in the high fry density pool and had to swicht on the filtration system. Besides, tt takes time to get enough live food for the fry.
Anyway, the fry are too small, and there are maybe three black bass in the big pond introduced by some fool in late summer! Today I managed to catch one of them while harvesting live food for the fry. Still can't believe it!
In the other two smaller ponds there are water snakes!
I definitely will wait and let them grow in the greenhouse as much as possible. Will be easier to start culling there. Hopefully they will start feeding dried food soon. Next week I hope all the remaining bass will be history, let see.
Good luck,
Diego
