Sago pondweed wigeon grass, southern naiad, common pondweed, broad leaf (American) pondweed are all good choices for PK shrimp. They will prosper well in many macrophytes fairly quickly.
LCS probably needs little if any vegetation to get started but the young will need food sources the vegetation provides good habitat for.
It was my thought that the young lake chubsuckers would do better surviving to adulthood and spawning with vegetation present.
Out of the plants that you mentioned, which one do you think would be the most easily managed to keep it from taking over a pond? I obviously want SOME vegetation, but I don't want to be punching through dense mats of weeds on every cast LOL.
