aerating
Can any of the pond managers out there please tell me the ratio of more fish per acre a pond can hold if aerated with a pump and diffuser or a sump turning the pond over 1 to 2 times a day spraying up into the air pulling from the bottom

I'm going to agree with the answer that esshup gave you over at the Pondboss site, approx 200 lbs more fish per acre with aeration vs. non-aeration.
The main rule in pond management is that there are very few hard and fast rules. Lots of variables.
