Good stuff Rainman. By 20% are you referring to watercovered bottom area, or including the banks/dam as well for vegetation? You've described the challenge quite well, and I'll see if I can track down AaronM as sustaining 2000 lbs of fish in so little water is quite amazing.


Yes, the 20% of vegetation should be in submerged and emergent plant life inside the pool area.
