I don't see the point in rushing to stock this fall as it's too late for reproduction anyway. What kind of slope do you have? If not much i see a heron cleaning out your fatheads and other fish without staked lines in place.
The pond is so smalll it seems hybrid pellet fed bluegills should be your choice. If that's the case i see no point in putting in fatheads. Don't over stock or over feed or you'll be looking at filamentous algae issues which may happen anyway.
I would also seriously consider Aquashade if you go the hybrid bluegill route.
