Have a spot where I can put in a small pond (1/10 acre) which would be around 12 feet deep with very little shallow water. The pond would be aerated. Would like to make it a channel cat only pond and would feed them. Pond use would be for kids fishing only. Thanks for any advise.

Depending on the aeration system (i.e. how much O2 it adds to the pond) and how closely you monitor and adjust the water quality, you could annually raise from 0 to over 150# in that size pond.

Diffuser aeration?


If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.

Yes there would be diffuser aeration. I have a airmax AM60 which would probably be to much for such a small pond but the manifold has an extra valve I could use as a bleeder if necessary.
Thanks for the replies.
