T - I can't access the latest issue. But I guess the whole thing boils down to this: I acknowledge native fish will always be subject to entering the pond, that is not a problem as long as I already have a food chain established. The goal is to never let the "undesirables" gain a foothold. Thanks, but not sure I want to be an experiemental pond. Just want to do it right the first time, based on data and facts.
