I've read that, the 20% advice, but what about 20% makes it ideal and why would it not be good to cover your entire pond with structure? I understand different fish require different habitats but it seems all fish would benefit from cover on the entire pond. Peepaw, I've added a lot of brush piles already and cinder block hotels, but I'm likely going to build some 6-7 foot tall PVC porcupine-like trees among other artificial fish habitat.


1.7 A pond, 0.5 A pond, 0.75 A pond and 0.25 A pond
Only pond I'm currently managing is 1.7 A pond which has CC, LMB, and BG
