Thanks Theo,
Is there any reason not to incorporate both the combinations you have suggested? Why not the HB BGs? I like fish that are fun to catch and good to eat. Perch, bass (LMB & SMB), and wallies sound great. The only other fish id like to eat would be RT.

I would shy away from HBG. I have them in my pond and I am trying to get rid of them. They will compete with your BG and your predator fish. In my opinion standard BG put up more of a fight than HBG anyway. In my experience standard BG also grow larger than HBG. Also, HBG will not produce enough to sustain a healthy predator population.
Now that I have told you the down side of HBG. The up side is that they will bite anything aggressively, and Kids love to catch them.
