| Impact Description | Age-0 Blue and Channel Catfish showed both survival and growth on a diet of Silver Carp fecal pellets, with Blue Catfish showing no difference in survival or growth rate compared to a control diet of chironomids. Silver Carp fecal pellets may provide a potential pathway for nutrient transfer between pelagic and benthic habitats. |
