Now how long can they survive at that temp is unknown to me.
im guessing the same thing for the tilapia. Is there any chance of a spring that bubbles up in that area or something maybe? Just a few degrees difference is all it would take i imagine.
In that case let's stock some Peacock Bass in Old Hickory! They ran wild through the south Florida canals and man they were a blast to catch. Even more fight pound for pound than a Smallmouth.
